| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Many concepts and notions have been used to deal with the social and political fact of difference, and diversity is the last on the list, as stated by Avana Lentin and Gavan Titley. It has been described by many as vague, ubiquitous and malleable, ambiguous, or else multifaceted. Most of the authors who have dealt critically with the topic have stressed the plasticity and ubiquity of diversity, considered at times as discourse, at others as practice or policy, and sometimes as both. But among these authors, there are numerous who have depicted the genealogy or the invention of diversity—therefore, breaking the vicious circle of the vision of a vague and ungraspable diversity. |
