Rövid leírás:
Based on an in-depth study carried out in the business districts of New York City and Paris, Managing Corporate Virtue looks beyond the whirlwind of public rhetoric about diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, and examines corporate diversity practices from behind the scenes. By focusing on the experiences of the workers entrusted with implementing diversity initiatives in large workplaces, Laure Bereni identifies common aspirations, frustrations, challenges, and strategies in the field. By comparing the history and form of these efforts in New York and Paris, she reveals the ways in which DEI initiatives are shaped by legal frameworks, public policies, and cultural legacies. Ultimately, the book highlights the inherent organizational fragility of corporate diversity practices, but also affirms their potential for resilience in the face of political headwinds.

A major tenet of contemporary capitalism holds that what is good for business can align with what is good for society. Efforts towards more diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces epitomize this rising ideology, termed responsible capitalism. An increasingly common managerial mantra is "diversity means business." But how does it play out in the daily life of organizations?
Drawing on interviews with diversity managers, a historical review of practitioner literature, and observations from organizations in New York City and Paris, Managing Corporate Virtue goes beyond the rhetoric of DEI initiatives to uncover the concrete challenges faced by those tasked with implementing them. Laure Bereni reveals the persistent fragility of diversity efforts, which are often sidelined; subject to the variations of the legal, social, and political environment; and require constant efforts to sustain managerial support. Practitioners must prove their programs are neither merely virtue signaling nor the Trojan horse of political, legal, or moral pressures that would unsettle the corporate order. Ultimately, by exploring the day-to-day work of diversity managers in the United States and France, Bereni exposes the contradictions lurking beneath the neoliberal promise of harmony between profit and virtue.
In her new book, Laure Bereni dives deep into the worlds of diversity managers in New York and Paris, coming up with stunning insights about how dramatically different their jobs and initiatives are. In the U.S., the mandate is to fight racial discrimination; in France it is to redistribute resources to the disadvantaged. In the U.S., women of color do the work - in France it is white men. In both countries, managers walk a fine line between mere virtue signaling and evoking backlash. Managing Corporate Virtue is not only a virtuoso piece of social science, it shows possibilities for a different future at a time when diversity management is under attack.
