Abstract
With China's rising global presence, translating city promotion materials is crucial for effective international discourse. This study aims to explore how discourse is constructed in these translations, investigate the relationships among participants, and analyze the dissemination of the materials. Utilizing Fairclough's critical discourse analysis framework, 337 English texts from official Chinese sources are examined. The findings highlight how national consciousness influences translation practices and reveal biases in international media reports. This research enhances translation studies by addressing the social factors behind translation, providing valuable insights for improving city promotion materials in China's global narrative.
