Description

This innovative text examines why people participate in and watch sport through the lens of pleasure, an often-overlooked aspect of sports sociology. Addressing a significant gap in academic literature, the book provides critical analysis of how pleasure shapes participation in sport, exercise and physical education. By exploring the moving body and pleasure as central themes, this Routledge Research volume offers new insights into the production of various identities and power relationships within sport culture and society. Ideal for students and scholars studying sociology, sports studies, cultural analysis and social sciences, this work challenges conventional approaches to understanding human engagement with physical activity and athletic pursuits.

Key Features

This Routledge Research text focuses on pleasure as the prime motivation for sport participation and spectatorship, offering a fresh perspective on sports sociology.

The book provides critical examination of how pleasure shapes identity production and power dynamics within sport, exercise and physical education contexts.

Designed for students and academics in sociology, sports studies and social sciences seeking to understand emotional and affective dimensions of athletic engagement.

This innovative approach addresses a gap in academic literature by centring pleasure as an integral aspect of human life and sports participation.
