Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential sports
books of all time, C. L. R. James's Beyond a Boundary is-among
other things-a pioneering study of popular culture, an analysis of
resistance to empire and racism, and a personal reflection on the
history of colonialism and its effects in the Caribbean. More than
fifty years after the publication of James's classic text, the
contributors to Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket investigate
Beyond a Boundary's production and reception and its implication
for debates about sports, gender, aesthetics, race, popular
culture, politics, imperialism, and English and Caribbean identity.
Including a previously unseen first draft of Beyond a Boundary's
conclusion alongside contributions from James's key collaborator
Selma James and from Michael Brearley, former captain of the
English Test cricket team, Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket
provides a thorough and nuanced examination of James's
groundbreaking work and its lasting impact. Contributors. Anima
