Rethinking Hybridity: Interrogating Mixedness
- Submission status
- Closed
This special issue engages with debates about the terms ‘hybridity’ and ‘mixedness’ across the natural and human and social sciences, including the work of the cultural theorist Homi Bhabha. It takes up various provocations and paradoxes of hybridity, and its vernacular counterpart mixedness, to examine the play of boundary making, testing and breaching for the subject as she makes and takes shape in her relations with others and changing biocultural arrangements and flows.
