The study of built environments such as gymnasiums, football
stadiums, swimmimg pools and skating rinks provides unique
information about the historical enclosure of the gendered and
sexualised body, the body's capabilities, needs and desires. It
illuminates the tensions between the globalising tendencies of
sport and the importance of local culture and a sense of place.
This collection uses spatial concepts and examples to examine the
nature and development of sporting practices. At a time when the
importance of spacial theories and spacial metaphors to sport is
being increasingly recognised, this pioneering work on the changing
landscape of sporting life will appeal to students of the history,
sociology and management of sport.
