I have no way to check the relative number of papers about diversity published in China, but they do at least collect statistics. E.g. here is data compiled by the Ministry of Education, which is tabulated for categories such as gender, minority status or age: http://en.moe.gov.cn/Resources/Statistics/edu_stat_2016/2016...

Odd, I just get an infinite redirect when trying to load the page.

A lack of papers on diversity seems attributable to the Chinese government's effort to control any strain of "minority" dissent. I imagine that, say, Uyghurs or the rural people on the wrong end of the hukou system, might be interested in "diversity", but for obvious reasons the Chinese government is not interested in anything that suggests it treats certain subgroups worse than others.

> For instance, you won't find many if any papers in china on the effects of diversity within society and the workplace. Unlike here, they don't seem to be urgently researching in this area.

Maybe, and just maybe, their research in those areas is not something anybody would be willing to publish.
