670less-examined area of Arabic interpreting for the police as its main focus. Incalling for training and specialization in forensic linguistics, the paper has beenforthright in casting light on some of the inadequacies of the current system oftesting, teaching and training generalist interpreters. Interpreting for the policeshould be seen as an area sui generis that requires closer academicexamination and research.While the professional and cultural foci have been based on the Arabicspeakingcommunity, the same applies to all other communities andirrespective of their language, culture or levels of democracy and politicalsophistication.The specialization in police interpreting is likely to become more evident notonly in migrant communities but throughout the world as Human RightsOrganizations and the World Trade Organization streamline existing nationallaws and introduce newer legislations that will facilitate the mobility of peopleand particularly workers. This can already be seen in places such as theEuropean Union, the United Kingdom, South East Asia and the Arab GulfStates, particularly Dubai.
