Fitness Information Technology, Inc, U.S. Sport, Race & Ethnicity: Narratives of Difference
Book SynopsisThis provocative collection brings together some of the leading historians, sociologists, political scientists, and cultural theorists on an ambitious range of topics dealing with sport, diversity and difference. The book is both diverse and inclusive, for it considered race, ethnicity and aboriginality in tandem; too often these themes are segmented into separate studies. The collection features vibrant examples from different eras, places and spaces -- wherein co-themes like post-colonialism, gender and media representation are embedded.

Fitness Information Technology, Inc, U.S. Embodied Masculinities in Global Sport
Book SynopsisThough an integral element of sport sociology, the study of masculinities in sport has been largely confined to Western sports such as American football. This book provides a more expanded view, offering tantalising insights into sport and manliness from culturally and geographically distinct perspectives. Editors Jorge Knijnik and Daryl Adair, along with a group of international researchers, articulate how various types of masculinities can be played out in different sports by drawing from personal experiences of athletes, investigating the cultural -- and even global -- impact of male achievements in sport, and comparing men''s experiences in sport with women''s. While maintaining the body''s pivotal role in the social construction of gender, Embodied Masculinities provides the sport sociological literature with an innovative and truly global perspective on what it means to be a man, whether on the field, on the court, or in the saddle.
