La mezcla de personas y medios de comunicación de diferentes culturas es un fenómeno conocido como hibridación. Marwan Kraidy, se basa en la investigación original del Líbano a México y analiza el uso del término en los estudios culturales y poscoloniales (así como los medios populares y empresariales), de esta forma ofrece a los lectores una historia de la idea y un conjunto de recetas para su uso futuro.
Kraidy analiza el uso del concepto de mezcla cultural desde el primer siglo de nuestra era hasta su actual aplicación en la academia y en la prensa comercial. Los estudios que se muestran en el libro construyen un argumento para comprender la importancia de la dinámica de la comunicación, las relaciones de poder desiguales y la economía política, así como la cultura, en situaciones de hibridación.

Texto completo
Shortlisted for the Phi Beta Kappa Society’s Christian Gauss Award.The poet Langston Hughes was a tireless world traveler and a prolific writer, translator, and editor. Translations of his own writings traveled even more widely than he did, earning him adulation throughout Europe, Asia, and especially the Americas. This study contends that, for writers who are part of the African diaspora, translation is more than just a literary practice: it is a fact of life and a way of thinking. “Kutzinski has given us one of the very best analyses and evaluations of Hughes’s seminal texts. We observe him at work translating, but we also see his works being translated. Kutzinski, a preeminent polylingual comparativist who knows the literatures of the African diaspora as well as anyone, brings a keen understanding of both race and ethnicity to her overarching discussion. She has written an exemplary work, which will be widely influential.»—John Lowe, Louisiana State University
