The story of global sport is the story of expansion from local
development to globalized industry, from recreational to marketized
activity. Alongside that, each sport has its own distinctive
history, sub-cultures, practices and structures. This ambitious new
volume offers state-of-the-art overviews of the development of
every major sport or classification of sport, examining their
history, socio-cultural significance, political economy and
international reach, and suggesting directions for future research.
Expert authors from around the world provide varied perspectives on
the globalization of sport, highlighting diverse and often
underrepresented voices. By putting sport itself in the foreground,
this book represents the perfect companion to any social scientific
course in sport studies, and the perfect jumping-off point for
further study or research. The Routledge Handbook of Global Sport
is an essential reference for students and scholars of sport
history, sport and society, the sociology of sport, sport
development, sport and globalization, sports geography,
international sports organizations, sports cultures, the governance
of sport, sport studies, sport coaching or sport management.
