Louis Schweitzer

As Louis Schweitzer, chairman of Halde (the French equal opportunities and anti-discrimination commission), puts it in the commission's 2006 annual report: "If we believe in equality, the absence of diversity is the visible sign of discrimination, or of a poorly-managed equal opportunities policy.
...
And Schweitzer has had his own problems with discrimination; when he was at Renault, the company was accused of discriminating against unions.
...
And the problem is not that Schweitzer used to discriminate against members of radical unions. There's no hypocrisy in opposing radical unions while supporting diversity because there's no contradiction between perpetuating the elite and also trying to diversify it. The point of diversifying the elite is to legitimate it, not eliminate it. Against racism, against sexism and against socialism -- Schweitzer is the perfect person to run Halde.

A successful businessman, Schweitzer understands that the commitment to diversity is as much a management strategy as a political stance and that the enthusiasm for diversity is as high in business schools as it is among the Indigènes de la République.

Louis Schweitzer, the head of HALDE, told the newspaper La Croix that religious freedom is "not absolute" and could be limited if there is a valid reason.

The President of the HALDE, Louis Schweitzer, reiterated as recently as October 13 that he is implacably opposed to ethnic monitoring, a measure which many experts believe to be critically important if institutional racism is to be detected and eradicated.
