Sumario: | The International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies addresses the key problematic of the construction of difference within intersecting, asymmetrical power relations. It brings together an integrated critique of hierarchical relations of privilege, domination and oppression on all axes of difference, with a particular focus on the normative orders of coloniality/modernity. A closely-knit, interdependent world struggling with the realities of heterogeneity calls for critical approaches to difference that can identify enduring and emerging processes of Othering, and articulate forms and means by which exclusion and hierarchical arrangements can be resisted and reframed. The journal therefore provides a decolonial anti-disciplinary intellectual forum in which plural, just, and ethical sociological imaginations can be cultivated and expanded.
