| Abstract | This paper focuses on conceptually outlining how in today’s mobile and highly interconnected world, people of different heritages and backgrounds construct and negotiate their racial, ethnic and/or cultural identities in intimate spaces. By examining the growth of primarily heterosexual couples involved in intimate ‘mixed’ relationships in Australia, Britain and the USA, this paper questions the dearth of empirical and theoretical research in this area. Drawing upon a new and critical framework that disrupts notions of difference on a binary/polemic level, this paper provides a brief conceptual setting to a proposed research project, which aims to reveal and explore a number of complex and contradictory issues about racialised, ethnic and cultural differences in intimate spaces in Australia, Britain and the USA. |
