Policies that forbid inter-racial or inter-ethnic marriage are essentially trying to prevent the natural hybridization of peoples. This hybridization is called amalgamation.
More about amalgamation:
The process of combining two cultures to produce a new culture is known as cultural amalgamation. It is frequently referred to as a more harmonious form of cultural engagement than the assimilation process. Cultural fusion does not involve one group adopting another group's culture or one group modifying another group's culture (acculturation) (assimilation).
Studies on the post-civil rights era in the United States as well as current multiculturalism and multiracialism frequently utilise the term "cultural amalgamation."
