title: Hybrid times: theses on the temporalities of cloning.
abstract: In this paper, I focus on Hans-Jörg Rheinberger's notion of "historiality", which provides a specific epistemology of time that abandons ideas of 'origin', 'influence or of history as a continuous and cumulative development. It is used here to frame a brief historical analysis of the coexistence and interference of different concepts of cloning and related views on temporalities of the organisms as well as shifting temporal concepts in popular debates about the risks of life sciences in the 1970s.
