Abstract
We live in a hybridized world. Actors, ideas and practices interact, negotiate, coalesce, conflict and re-coalesce in a dizzying dynamic. Hybridization is common in all societies, and is particularly visible through market-driven globalization. Given the focus of this volume on liberal peace transitions, it is worth noting that hybridization is also prominent in societies undergoing peacebuilding and peace implementation programmes. In such cases, the processes of hybridization are often accelerated, or they suffer peculiar distortions as internal and external actors interact.
