2 commitment

•• commitment, commit

•• Commit 1. to do, to perform.... 3. to pledge, to bind with an obligation (The Random House Dictionary).
•• Чаще всего слово commitment, не долго думая, переводят приверженность. Но это слово, довольно формальное и бесцветное, мало что говорит русскому слуху. При переводе лучше идти от существительного к глаголу. Например: We share a commitment to human rights. – И вы, и мы верим в права человека. I have made a commitment to this program. – Я решил поддержать эту программу.
•• В современном английском языке слова commitment и commit отличаются высокой частотностью. Скажем, в короткой статье в газете The Independent они встречаются три раза, и каждый раз переводчик может испытывать трудности:
•• 1. Mr. Allegre has alarmed Washington by suggesting he might abandon, or reduce France’s commitment to the grandiose scheme to build a permanent international orbiting space station. Здесь commitment – участие;
•• 2. France will take part in the station’s construction but is refusing to commit itself to the manned space activities that will follow. Здесь commit - взять на себя обязательство, но слово участвовать все равно «всплывает» в переводе: Франция примет участие в создании станции, однако она не берет на себя обязательства участвовать в последующей программе пилотируемых полетов;
•• 3. Despite the squeeze on public spending, the new Socialist-led government in France is deeply committed to its space program. – ...твердо намерено продолжать свою космическую программу.
•• Среди русских слов, которые описывают «семантическое поле» слова commitment в разных оттенках его значения, отметим обязанность, обязательство, решение, выбор, ориентация, политика, намерение, линия, курс. В некоторых примерах они как бы сливаются в одно целое. China has come to appreciate that WTO entry is not a one-time deal, but rather a long-term commitment to a pervasive system of rules and transparency (World Link). В переводе можно было бы сказать так: ...членство в ВТО – не единовременная сделка, а выбор системы, предполагающий строгое соблюдение правил игры и информационную открытость.
•• Аналогичный пример: ...political commitment to private ownership as the engine of economic growth (Time). – ...политический выбор в пользу...
•• Более трудный случай: What we were looking for was that extra level of commitment from the employees – in making suggestions, and most of all in being flexible (Time). Здесь, пожалуй, подойдут слова ответственность, заинтересованность, а может быть, готовность пойти навстречу (работодателю). Такое употребление слов commitment, committed встречается часто: Work in Russia is changing, and competent, committed professionals want to understand how to ensure their organizations’ success. [...] Businesses in Russia need to have their people be fully committed to taking accountability for the organization’s success (Career Forum). Commitment replaces Beattie’s moral passivity and deadpan style (New York Times). В последнем примере контекст подсказывает перевод неравнодушное отношение.
•• Еще один пример контекстуального перевода этого слова – заинтересованность. De Gaulle presupposed an American commitment to the rump of liberal Europe (D.Mahoney). – Де Голль исходил из заинтересованности США в сохранении того, что оставалось от либеральной Европы.
•• Другие варианты контекстуального перевода: активность, активное участие/роль и т.п. America was reaching a point where global commitment was turning into overextension (Henry Kissinger). – Америка приближалась к рубежу, когда глобальная активность (активное участие в мировых делах) оборачивалась переоценкой собственных возможностей.
•• Интересен глагол to commit (oneself) в значении принять окончательное решение: he is considering the offer but he has not yet committed (himself). В слове commitment есть смысловой параметр, вытекающий именно из этого значения. Знание этого облегчает перевод. Еще один пример из книги Генри Киссинджера Diplomacy: [Kennedy’s] choices [became] more stark, and the consequences of either commitment or withdrawal more painful and costly. В переводе: ...последствия либо решительных действий, либо вывода войск... If [Vietnam] is this important, it may be worth a larger commitment on our part (David Halberstam). – Если Вьетнам так важен, то, может быть, нам следует действовать более решительно.

6 high moral ground

В военном языке the high ground (высота) обозначает тактическое преимущество и слово high имеет чисто топографическое значение. Политические комментаторы употребляют выражение high moral ground (высокие моральные ценности), в котором слово high приобретает значение чего-либо превосходного, благородного, возвышенного. Существуют многочисленные современные клише: traditional values (традиционные, старые ценности, проверенные временем), stable family standards (прочные семейные устои), permanent relationships (устойчивые, надёжные взаимоотношения), long-term-commitment (долгосрочное обязательство, обещание верности) и подобные им.
