In recent decades, diversity has gained space mainly in the academic discussion of organizational studies, labor relations, and human resource management. There are critical reflections on inequality, difference, and prejudice, as well as a considerable discursive appeal about business management practices linked to the ideas of productivity, creativity, and innovation. The multiplicity of diversity reveals its theoretical and empirical plurality that takes different paths when related to the dynamic relationships among societies, organizations, and people. We conducted a systematic review of the Brazilian scientific production on diversity, in publications in the area of Administration, in the scientific databases Google Scholar, Web of Science (WoS), Spell, and Scopus. We understand diversity as a debate of the new millennium therefore, the period analyzed was 2001 to 2019. The main results include: i) diversity in and of the papers; ii) the (in)definition and scope of the concept; iii) the emergence and growth of the topic; iv) the incipience of authorship and reference institution; v) the predominance of qualitative studies; vi) the (in)visibility of certain social markers given the breadth of the concept and theme.
