This paper analyzes how political metaphors can be manipulated by translators in order to preserve the flavor of source texts as well as achieve intended communicative effects from the perspective of Communicative Translation Theory. Through categorizing metaphors in The Governance of China and taking the influencing factors into account, translation strategies for four quintessential types of metaphors are explored. It argues that translation strategies including domestication, conversion of metaphor to sense, omission as well as combination of literal translation and annotation are practical approaches to retain original flavor as well as obtain intended communicative effects. Keywords—Political metaphors; Communicative translation; Ideological influence; Cultural default; Translation strategies
