The ebook edition of this title is Open Access and freely available
to read online. The era of team science has long since dawned.
However, in order for the individual members of a team to work
well, research organizations need to provide a productive and
naturally non-discriminatory working environment. Bringing together
and integrating researchers and their diverse backgrounds in
effective teams does not happen on its own. To harness the positive
effects of diversity, it must be understood and managed
proactively. The edited collection Diversity and Discrimination in
Research Organizations provides researchers with empirical studies
on the question of whether and to what extent the social identity
of the academic workforce affects their individual integration in
research organizations. Practitioners receive guidance and
suggestions on possible starting points and requirements for
programmes to improve equal opportunities and work climate in their
research organizations. The articles can be roughly divided into
two categories according to the guiding questions of this edited
collection: macro studies surveying the extent of discrimination
and harassment in research organizations and micro studies
exploring the influence of the specific cultural contextual
conditions of the academic workplace on experiences of
discrimination and harassment related to the diversity of the
workforce.
