About This Volume
This book emerged from the DFG-Heisenberg project Demarcations and performative Transpositions at FU Berlin and was supported by funds from the German Research Foundation (DFG) as well as FU Berlin. Additional funding was provided through the open access support of mdw and resources from IKM at mdw. After the project proposal was accepted by the academic advisory board of mdwPress, the book underwent an independent peer review by two reviewers and was then accepted by the advisory board for publication.
