Description

Explore the connection between physical activity and human emotion with Sport and the Social Significance of Pleasure. This academic text from the Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society series offers a critical examination of why people participate in or watch sports. While recent academic trends have focused on emotions and affect, this book fills a gap by focusing specifically on pleasure as a core part of the human experience. Using a pleasure lens, the text analyzes the moving body and provides fresh insights into the production of various identities. It is an essential resource for students and professionals in the fields of sociology, exercise science, and physical education. By looking at the social impact of enjoyment in sport, this work helps readers understand the deeper motivations behind athletic engagement and spectatorship.
