-- Introduction -- PART I:�HYBRIDITY, A HISTORICAL OVERVIEW: FROM ANTIQUITY TO MODERN TIMES -- �Mtissage, Ideology, and Politics in Ancient Discourses -- Myths of Purity and Mixed Marriages from Antiquity to the Middle Ages -- Interracial Relationships and the Economy of Power in Modern Empires -- PART II: HYBRIDITY IN CONTEMPORARY THEORY: A CRITICAL ASSESSMENT -- The Ethos of Hybridity-Discourse -- Critical Perspectives on Hybridity and the Third Space -- Class, Race, and Postcolonial Hybridity-Discourse -- Postcolonial Discourse, Postmodernist Ethos: Neocolonial Complicities -- Hybridity Theory and Binarism -- The Global and the Postcolonial: Uneasy Alliance -- Hybridity and Neoliberalism/Neocolonialism -- Decolonizing Postcolonial Discourse -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index -- � -- -- �.

This book offers an accessible, in-depth analysis of hybridity as a practice, discourse, and ideological construction. Its scope ranges widely, encompassing conceptualizations of hybridity from ancient Greece and Rome to the present. The views of such key figures as Plato, Aristotle, Alexander the Great, Virgil, Gobineau, Renan, and Tocqueville, as well as Bakhtin, Fanon, and Bhabha are all freshly reassessed. The ground-breaking perspectives provided reorient contemporary debates on hybridity and the 'Third Space'. They significantly widen our awareness of the history of �mtissage and expand the methodological, conceptual, empirical, and ideological orientations of contemporary hybridity theorists. AcheraIou deftly examines the questions of race, class, identity, binarism, postmodernist ideology, neoliberalism, and globalization. In particular, he recommends decolonizing postcolonialism, indicating ways to transcend the cultural and spatial turn predetermining current discussions of �mtissage, culture, and identity politics. Throughout, he analyzes hybridity in the light of globalization, suggesting how postcolonialism could become a genuinely counter-hegemonic mode of resistance to global neoliberal doxa.
