Description

This comprehensive study explores Japanese sport beyond the well-known disciplines of sumo, karate and baseball, examining how sport functions as a distinctive cultural sphere. The book bridges theoretical perspectives from Bourdieu and Foucault to analyse the body as both a field of action and a subject of discourse in shaping modern Japanese society. It investigates how politics of the body are articulated within Japanese sport, connecting body culture, political economy, and cultural globalisation. Part of the Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society series, this work offers readers critical insights into the intersection of sport, society and bodily practices in contemporary and historical Japan, providing scholarly analysis for students and researchers in sports studies, cultural studies and Japanese studies.
