Description

Explore the global expansion of capoeira, the Brazilian dance-fight-game, in this original ethnographic study from Routledge. As capoeira grows into a popular leisure activity and a professional career for Brazilians in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia, this research provides a deep look into the phenomenon. Based on recent research conducted in the UK, this book investigates the martial art through various lenses. It offers a wealth of data regarding masculinities, performativity, embodiment, and globalisation. Readers will gain insight into rites of passage and the cultural impact of this practice as it moves across borders. This volume is a significant addition to the Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society series for those studying globalised movement and cultural identity.
