Abstract

This paper explores tensions related to using representation to signal diversity and inclusion on and behind the stage in a performing arts organization in Sweden. Drawing on a recognition-based approach to inclusion, we analyze how minority and majority organisational members negotiate tensions related to representing, and being made to represent, diversity. Our ethnographic study illustrates how increased representation gives rise to conflicting experiences when collective or individual heterogeneity is negated and directs attention to the interpersonal and organisational relations that condition these experiences. We contribute to the critical literature on diversity and inclusion, and to research on recognition-based inclusion, by elucidating the interplay between recognition and misrecognition that shapes how representation is negotiated. We critically examine the complexities of using representation to promote diversity and inclusion and discuss its implications for creating more equal conditions of participation in culture and arts.

表演艺术组织中代表多样性的权力和负担:一种基于认可的方法
本文探讨了在瑞典的一个表演艺术组织中,在舞台内外使用代表性来表示多样性和包容性的紧张关系。基于基于认可的包容性方法,我们分析了少数和多数组织成员如何协商与代表和被要求代表多样性有关的紧张关系。我们的人种学研究表明,当集体或个人的异质性被否定时,代表性的增加是如何产生冲突的体验的,并将注意力引导到制约这些体验的人际和组织关系上。我们通过阐明认可和误认之间的相互作用,对多样性和包容性的批判性文献以及基于认可的包容性的研究做出了贡献,这些相互作用决定了代表权的谈判方式。我们批判性地研究了利用代表性促进多样性和包容性的复杂性,并讨论了其对创造更平等的文化和艺术参与条件的影响。
