Description
Diversity in the Workplace looks at the concept of diversity in different social and legal contexts, and from perspectives such as sociology, anthropology, psychology, philosophy and organizational theory. The contributors add a European view to the existing, mainly US-oriented, literature, examining how the modern organization promotes and manages diversity, accommodating and integrating different value and belief systems and anti-discrimination laws.
