Description
This scholarly work examines sport in contemporary South Africa through a comprehensive historical lens, tracing the evolution and social impact of athletics throughout the twentieth century. The book analyses the development of football, cricket, surfing, boxing and rugby, exploring how these sports intersect with racial identity, masculinity, femininity, and political and social transformation across the nation. By situating South African sport within broader geo-political contexts and continental developments, the volume offers readers a nuanced understanding of how athletic pursuits have shaped national identity and reflected societal changes. Published by Routledge as part of the Sport in the Global Society series, this work combines historical scholarship with sociological analysis to provide insight into sport's role in nation-building and social change.
