Interrogating the Histories and Futures of “Diversity’’ Symposium
Transnational Perspectives, Damani Partridge
The symposium will investigate the concept, history and institutional implications of the discourse and practice of “diversity” as an emerging globalized form of inclusion.
To what extent does “diversity’’ sustain the status quo and to what extend does it transform it? How does “diversity’’ work in relation to demands for social justice? What are other means of inclusion? How are they working and being theorized in particular global contexts?
