Beyond an analysis of the cocktail as a commercial commodity, the mulata body can be placed within an intercultural space shaped by the processes of colonization, slavery and race relations. By examining the grammars in the mulata cocktail, the discussion moves the subject through other texts and discourses in order to mediate the mulata&#8217;s embodied genealogy as a form of transculturation. As a hybrid body that inhabits a \u2018racialized\u2019 performativity, the mulata&#8217;s subaltern agency is imagined beyond the exoticism charged to its presence in the Latin American and Caribbean contexts. A closer look at the mulata body helps to trace not only the process of objecthood affected by masculinist power and desire, but also by the way the process of subjecthood is performatively achieved.<\/p>\n<p>Read or purchase the article <a href=\"http:\/\/journals.cambridge.org\/action\/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&amp;aid=109153&amp;fulltextType=RA&amp;fileId=S0307883302000226#\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Race-ing Performativity through Transculturation, Taste and the Mulata Body Theatre Research International Volume 27, Number 2 (2002) pages 136-152 DOI: 10.1017\/S0307883302000226 Alicia Arriz\u00f3n, Professor of Women&#8217;s Studies University of California, Riverside A Cuban cocktail called mulata inspires an examination of the mulata body.
