It has been evaluated that the Management of Diversity approach is insufficient in terms of the negative discrimination of a characteristic such as racialization. In such an evaluation, Ray's work on the Theory of Racialized Organizations in the US literature can be given as evidence of the persistence of racial discrimination in organizations. Ray based his theory on the problem of racism. This study, based on the Theory of Racialized Organizations, which has visibility in the US literature, is based on the argument that racialization is a value. Although Ray does not include racialization as a value in the theory, it is referred to as a negative value. In the face of Diversity Management, the visibility of the Racialized Organizations Theory in the US literature was examined through document and content analysis and evidence of the existence of racialization at the individual and/or organizational level in the US literature was found. Considering the timeliness of the evidence and the ability of values to spread, it was evaluated that racialization may be in a negative value trend

Farklılıkların Yönetimi Karşısında Irksallaştırılmış Örgütler Teorisi: Irkçılığın (Bir Değer Olarak) ABD Örgütlerinde Görünürlüğü (Doküman ve İçerik Analiz Yöntemli Bir Çalışma)

Öz

Farklılıkların Yönetimi anlayışının, ırksallaştırma gibi bir özelliğin negatif ayrımlaştırılmasının ötelenmesinde yetersiz kaldığı değerlendirilmiştir. Böyle bir değerlendirme de, örgütlerde ırksal ayrımcılığın sürdüğünün bir kanıtı olarak, Ray’in ABD alanyazınında bulunan Irksallaştırılmış Örgütler Teorisi çalışması verilebilir. Ray teorisinde ırkçılık sorununu esas almıştır. Bu çalışma, ABD alanyazınında görünürlüğü olan Irksallaştırılmış Örgütler Teorisi temel alınarak, ırksallaştırmanın bir değer olduğu savına dayanmıştır. Her ne kadar Ray, teori içerisinde ırksallaştırmanın bir değer olduğuna yer vermemiş olsa da, ırksallaştırmanın negatif bir değer olduğuna atıf yapılmıştır. Farklılıkların Yönetimi karşısında, Irksallaştırılmış Örgütler Teorisi’nin ABD alanyazınında görünürlüğü doküman ve içerik analizi ile incelenmiş ve ABD alanyazınında ırksallaştırmanın bireysel ve/veya örgütsel düzeyde varlığını gösterir kanıtlara ulaşılmıştır. Kanıtların güncel olması ve değerlerin yayılabileceği özelliği düşünüldüğünde, ırksallaştırmanın negatif bir değer eğilimi içerisinde olabileceği değerlendirilmiştir.
