Produktbeschreibung
The history of the hybridity concept and the literature about hybridity show the continuous transformation of its meaning(s). It ranges from biological racist connotations in 19th-century colonialism to a powerful subversive tool for analysing asymmetric colonial encounters in 20th-century postcolonial studies. In the 20th century, hybridity and adjacent notions, such as transculturation, denoted this asymmetry. Bringing them into dialogue again in the 21st century, these and other related concepts may guide analyses of planetary cultural, economic, and political entanglements that avoid the false objectivism that the notion of 'globalisation' implies. As a result, the book critically reconsiders cultural hybridity as a concept for a world globally interconnected without losing the local articulations. So, this book argues that hybridity should be reframed with a view to the connections and entanglements it enables and complicates. As the world has become increasingly interconnected in the last few decades, this book investigates connectivity, relationships, and entanglements through new meanings and adjacent concepts, methods, and social expressions of hybridity. Methodologically, it examines hybridity within the framework of an increasingly interconnected global world, while analysing identities that intersect in cultural, socio-political, religious, and virtual spaces. The purpose of these multifaceted critical explorations is to reframe the potential and limits of hybridity in shedding light on the intersections between cultures on a global scale.
