Description

Sport: Race, Ethnicity and Identity examines how athletic competition has evolved as a space for social inclusion and cultural understanding. Published by Routledge as part of the Sport in the Global Society series, this scholarly work explores the paradoxes inherent in sport's relationship with race and ethnicity throughout the twentieth century and into the modern era. The book traces how sports transitioned from segregated environments where race and ancestry determined participation to more inclusive competitions where athletic ability takes precedence. Yet the analysis goes beyond this progress narrative to address persistent challenges: instances of racial vilification, hostility between groups, and the underrepresentation of minorities in leadership and governance roles. By examining these contradictions, the book offers readers a comprehensive framework for understanding how sport simultaneously reflects broader social attitudes whilst serving as a catalyst for change. Essential for scholars, educators, and anyone interested in the intersection of athletics, identity, and social justice.
