Research on Indigenous participation in sport offers many
opportunities to better understand the political issues of
equality, empowerment, self-determination and protection of culture
and identity. This volume compares and conceptualises the
sociological significance of Indigenous sports in different
international contexts. The contributions, all written by
Indigenous scholars and those working directly in Indigenous/Native
Studies units, provide unique studies of contemporary experiences
of Indigenous sports participation. The papers investigate current
understandings of Indigeneity found to circulate throughout sports,
sports organisations and Indigenous communities. by (1): situating
attitudes to racial and cultural difference within the broader
sociological processes of post colonial Indigenous worlds (2):
interrogating perceptions of Indigenous identity with reference to
contemporary theories of identity drawn from Indigenous Studies and
(3): providing insight to increased Indigenous participation,
empowerment and personal development through sport with reference
to sociological theory.
