Coined by Homi Bhabha in The Location of Culture (1994), “Third Space” operates as a term that challenges the representation of cultures and identities in terms of notions of purity and fixity of origins by opening a space of in-betweenness where static binaries of native and alien, past and present, and roots and routes dissolve into myriad combinations characterized by multiplicity and flux. As Bhabha explains, the term helps us to evade what he calls “the politics of polarity” and foregrounds a wider spectrum across which various enunciations of identity, based on components drawn from a wide variety of locations, become possible.
