Description

Hybrids of Modernity examines the intricate connections between three foundational western modernist institutions: anthropology, the nation state, and the universal exhibition. This scholarly work investigates how these institutions relate to one another, their shared role in the objectification of culture, and their transformation into subjects of cultural theory itself. The book addresses critiques questioning the viability of these institutions in the late 20th century despite their continued prominence. Through detailed analysis of the Universal Exhibition held in Seville in 1992, the author explores fundamental themes of culture and nationality, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of how modernity is constructed and contested across these interconnected domains. Published by Routledge, this work serves as essential reading for scholars, students, and professionals in anthropology, museum studies, cultural theory, and art history seeking to understand the theoretical underpinnings of modern institutions.
