Abstract
Although we shall not define in this chapter mixed and hybrid (or other nonstandard) finite element methods in a very precise way, we would like to situate them in a sufficiently clear setting. As we shall see, boundaries between different methods are sometimes rather fuzzy. This will not be a real drawback if we nevertheless know how to apply correctly the principles underlying their analysis.
