More about the book

The book critically examines how the concepts of diversity and intersectionality often serve as symbolic gestures within academia and policy, rather than genuine commitments to change. It argues that these terms are used to counter accusations of racism and sexism while maintaining existing power structures through Eurocentric and Androcentric frameworks. By analyzing their role as legitimizing performance indicators, the work highlights the ongoing resistance to fully realizing their transformative potential in institutional practices and discourses.
