Abstract

This editorial examines diversity from the perspective of the marginalised diverse. Space is created here for diverse voices, encouraging submissions from emerging economies and from those who have otherwise felt the marginalisation of dominating norms. [Tanima, F., and S. George. 2024. When the personal is political: Sharing our lived experiences as women of colour in academia. Social Environmental and Accountability Journal 44, no. 2] draw from early personal journals to provide relatable reflections, through a rich narrative of career experiences, both as accounting academics and as women of colour. [Lima, J.P., C. Miranda, and S. Casa Nova. 2024. Is there no sin down south of the equator? Brazilian auditors’ perception of the gendered and racialized dynamics in audit firms. Social Environmental and Accountability Journal 44, no. 2] then discuss the oppressive, gendered and racialised dynamics found within the Brazilian context. [Pereira, D., M.J. d’Angelo, and B. Cola. 2024. Queer performance of gay and cis men accountants from the perspective of tokenism. Social Environmental and Accountability Journal 44, no. 2] mobilise queer insights and notions of symbolic tokenism, to analyse interview-based experiences of cisgendered gay men working in the accounting profession in Brazil, providing insights on how impeding social structures can persist, despite increasing legal protections. [Anderson-Gough, F., C. Edgley, K. Robson, and N. Sharma. 2024. Cultural circularities that limit diversity: Emancipating voices. Social Environmental and Accountability Journal 44, no. 2] complete the special issue, with a thoughtful and personal conceptualisation of a range of ‘loop’ types which limit the effectiveness of organisational attention to equity, diversity and inclusion. This special issue points to the nuanced challenges faced, whether social, cultural or legal, from one geographic context to another. We end by calling for further exploration of lived experiences and diverse voices by the marginalised and managed diverse.
