#Humandiversity has always been a key #drivingforce for #progressivesocieties, even in ancient times. In contrast, the #NationalSocialists perfected #hatred, #xenophobia, #racism, #antisemitism, and #homophobia. Emerging #rightwingforces must not be allowed to repeat this, for diversity fosters higher #collectiveintelligence and greater scientific progress (see Nature editorial).

Susan Awbrey • The Dynamics of Vertical and Horizontal Diversity in Organization and Society
• https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1534484306295638

Diversity focuses on human characteristics that make people either different from or the same as each other. This article introduces the concepts of vertical and horizontal diversity. Vertical diversity evaluates difference as superior or inferior. Horizontal diversity treats difference as variation.
