In the special issue On Trans\/Performance<\/em> authors address a range of intersections between\u00a0trans-\u00a0(implying exceeding, moving towards, changing; going across, over or beyond) and the\u00a0performative\u00a0(saying as doing, or that which performs something while articulating it). \u00a0The\u00a0trans-\u00a0implies movement and fluidity while the\u00a0performative\u00a0implies action and opens up questions of agency; together, they point to innovative ways of thinking about topical questions such as how we live and take action, how we identify ourselves and others, how we write history, and how we approach local versus global tensions and intersections. In this issue articles and thought pieces, as well as artists\u2019 projects attending to the interrelation between trans- concepts and performativity, allow for the emergence of new insights regarding how performance theory works\u00a0across fields such as language (translation), history (transformation or change), gender\/sexuality (transgender and transsexuality or transidentification), and culture (transnational).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
