| Sumario: | Applying a translation policy model proposed by Gonzáles Núñez, the researchers focus on three translation policy aspects: translation management, translation practice and translation beliefs. While the Bureau was China's key official publisher producing foreign-language books and translations for export, the paper reconstructs its translation policy and offers a bibliometric analysis of its production over a span of fifty years. While most translations and publications of Portuguese literature received source-country subsidies, this is not the case in Italy, where only 18% of translations were supported. Most often, however, subsides are aimed directly at publishers of literature in translation, who act as the key gatekeepers of the intercultural dissemination process: they buy translation rights, hire translators and manage the production and promotion activities.
