Abstract

My former PhD supervisor and I were recently discussing the role of a ‘companion’ as a promising metaphor. A companion is someone with you on your journey with whom to share the experience, a witness of your encounters and reflections. Research is often a solitary journey on which postgraduate students would certainly appreciate such company, if student feedback on their experience is anything to go by. Researching diversity is a demanding endeavour: it spans deeply personal issues of identity as well as pressing social issues of equality and change. In this context relatability for students is as important as the need to be relevant by solving diversity issues in the workplace. The quality of a companion should therefore include such criteria: does it provide compelling conversations on diversity discourse and does it speak about research practice in ways which students find useful. In this sense Just, Risberg, and Villasèche’s (2021) collection The Routledge Companion to Organizational Diversity Research Methods is an enriching and thought-provoking companion.

书评：组织多样性研究方法的Routledge Companion

我的前博士生导师和我最近讨论了“伴侣”作为一个有前景的隐喻的角色。同伴是在你的旅程中与你分享经验的人，是你遭遇和思考的见证人。研究往往是一段孤独的旅程，如果学生对自己经历的反馈可以作为参考的话，研究生肯定会喜欢这样的陪伴。研究多样性是一项艰巨的工作：它涉及深刻的个人身份问题，以及平等和变革的紧迫社会问题。在这种情况下，学生的相关性与解决工作场所多样性问题的相关性一样重要。因此，同伴的质量应该包括这样的标准：它是否提供了关于多样性话语的令人信服的对话，以及它是否以学生认为有用的方式谈论研究实践。从这个意义上说，Just、Risberg和Villasèche（2021）的《组织多样性研究方法的Routledge伴侣》是一本丰富而发人深省的伴侣。
