Description

Given the increasingly diverse terrain of 21st century organizational life, research-ers and students are exploring theoretical frameworks and analytic tools that attempt to understand organizing proc-esses in all of their richness and complexity. As such, there is widespread recognition of the need to ex-amine organizations as constructed through, and repositories of, difference; that is, as complex intersec-tions of discourses of gender, race, class, sexuality, and other markers of difference. In this sense, organi-zations are one of the principal sites where differences that make a difference (Bateson) are produced and reproduced. Communication is not something that simply occurs in organizations; rather, organizing processes are constituted and made meaningful by the mundane communication practices of its members. This book examines difference as a communicative phenomenon: The differences that make a difference are social and material constructions that can be productively understood by examining them as communica-tively accomplished. All of the scholars in this volume explore difference from a variety of per-spectives, each of which examines systematically the relationships among communication, organizing, and difference. KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS: The book explores the relationships among communication, organizing, and difference through three foci: (1) Research, (2) Pedagogy, and (3) Practice. In Section I-Researching Difference, organizational communication scholars explore a number of ways in which differ-ence can be critically examined as a communicative phenomenon, with the goal being to demonstrate the importance of difference as a construct a sensitizing device through which the complexities of organiza-tional communication processes can be examined and better understood. In Section II-Teaching Difference, chapters move beyond teaching diversity in the workplace and instead explore how students can learn to appreciate
