English term or phrase: hybridization

Type of document: website
Context: does the hybridization of cultures mean that we always have to chose between cultures, or can we mix and match, creating a unique, individual one?
Is the hybridization of local traditions leading to a global culture?
Country: Canada
Considered translation: kruising hybridisatie

Ik vind kruising én hybridisatie niet mooi in deze context.
Kan vermenging of samensmelting ook?
