Our world is very culturally and ethnically diverse. Although there is so much beauty in the diversity of our world, the multiplicity of cultures can be very challenging when working to evoke change. Therefore, in an effort to better serve the realities of our environment, this article examines the question, “Is there a need for a different awareness on the part of researchers and/or intervention strategists when working to evoke change within diverse cultures, organizations, and/or communities?” And, equally important, how do we gain this awareness as we engage in change processes? Within the contextual framework of this question, this article also discusses the consequences that can and do emerge when one uses intervention strategies that may be grounded in generalized theory and practice when working within culturally and ethnically diverse populations. It concludes with a posit that suggests the need to evoke a more culturally sensitive approach to change, which is built on the use of discourse strategies that address the individualities of the environments, giving privilege to the diversity and culture.

Subjective Meanings

This chapter focuses on processes of social categorization used in the French literary field to define authors born in France to postcolonial immigrant parents. In 2007, the collective 'Qui fait la France?' released a volume of short stories called Chroniques d’une société annoncée, prefaced by its manifesto that was also released to the popular press. Composed of authors self-identifying as having 'mixed identities', the collective aimed through the publication of their manifesto and short stories to transform French literature through narrating and recognizing the unique histories, suffering, and aspirations of ethnically diverse populations. Meanwhile, its reception demonstrated how judgments of artistic value for cultural production by French artists of postcolonial immigrant heritage reveal problems tied to the conditions, modalities, and process of categorizing literary production. Through a sociological reconstruction of the formal and subjective meanings that each individual (artist, journalist, publisher, producer, etc.) ascribes to his/her actions, this chapter exposes the various logics through which artistic labelling based on social criteria establishes hierarchies and categories that structure the French literary field.
