Abstract/Résumé
Le modèle de l'AIIC/ESIT pour la formation des interprètes a été très influent dans le monde occidental. Pourtant, au cours de 20 à 30 dernières années, le monde a connu de nombreux changements économiques - le centre de gravité économique s’est déplacé des vieux continents, l'Amérique du Nord et l’Europe occidentale, aux nouveaux centres comme l’ Amérique du Sud, le Moyen-Orient, et l'Est Asie. Pourtant, peu d'études ont été réalisées pour savoir si le modèle ESIT/AIIC reste toujours une solution efficace pour les « pays en développement », comme le Brésil, l’Inde ou la Chine dont les demandes du marché sont très différentes des pays occidentaux. Plutôt que de supposer la validité d'un cadre one-size-fitsall, il faudrait réexaminer l’efficacité du modèle proposé par l'Ecole de Paris. Cette réévaluation est effectuée en Chine, l'un des plus grands pays en développement dans le monde. Les bonnes pratiques de formation des interprètes sont proposées en fonction de la demande et de l’offre de compétences au niveau local. La conception des modèles de formation des interprètes ne doivent pas être influencée par des lois universelles, mais ceuxci doivent prendre en considération des éléments spécifiques de chaque pays, conservant ainsi une certaine flexibilité .
