'The book is innovative by going beyond a mere critical take on DEI. It shows how we can rethink DEI work beyond seeing it as an HR issue, by combining practice theory (well known to many organisation studies scholars) and queer theory (which is still emerging as a scholarly approach in MOS at large, including for DEI scholars), and developing novel research designs on that basis... The book is an erudite, thoughtful, reflexive, and compelling attempt to reframe the fundamentals of how we study, theorize, and practice building more desirable futures for everyone.'
