For this purpose, main theoretical, normative and practical references related to academic and marketing aspects of the activity of the translator and interpreter were collected, analyzed and then compared to those existing in the world. After this analysis, which is only a preliminary approach to the need for a conceptual, theoretical and methodological development of the profession, the importance of thinking about some theoretical and commercial initiatives that pave the way for the professionalization of this area in the country was recognized. Likewise, it was found that academic production in this field in Colombia is very incipient and, in its great majority, it has focused on topics related to status, professionalization and legislation.</p>}, number={36}, journal={Cuadernos de Lingüística Hispánica}, author={Zuluaga Molina, Juan Felipe}, year={2020}, month={Jul.}, pages={79–102} }
