This collection of essays addresses research trends in the history
of British leisure while also presenting a wide range of articles
on cultural conflict and leisure in the twentieth century. It
includes innovative research on a number of topics, including
television, cinema, the circus, women's leisure, dance, football
and drug culture. It provides an excellent entry to leisure studies
and history, while addressing the contributions of other
disciplines and exploring key historiographical trends. Three broad
topics structure the collection; cultural contestation and social
conflict in leisure; regulation and standardisation; and national
identity embodied in leisure and popular culture. The book will be
useful to students and educators of twentieth-century and British
history, as it offers accessible and topical studies that pique
historical curiosity. In addition, historians, sociologists and
cultural analysts of the twentieth century will find it essential
for understanding pleasure and recreation in twentieth-century
British society. -- .
