The trouble with diversity: how we learned to love identity and ignore inequality

Trama

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION & INEQUALITY. Now, a decade later, Michaels offers a new afterword on how our regime of equal-opportunity exploitation has only intensified. Magnificently iconoclastic, he demonstrates that commitments to diversity fail to offer a premise for social justice and in fact legitimize the economic forces that drive inequality rather than offering a resistance or even a critique.
