Abstract
This paper engages with the formative concepts of diversity and intersectionality, inquiring how far they are employed as tools for achieving (gender) justice that open up spaces for marginalized constituencies, including racial and religious minorities, colonial subjects, queers, and women and how they unwittingly reify the hegemony of an entitled majority by failing to realize their emancipatory possibilities.
