Social inequalities are often reproduced in sport and leisure
contexts. However, sport and leisure can be sites of resistance as
well as oppression; they can be repressive or promote positive
social change. This challenging and important book brings together
contemporary cases examining different dimensions of inequality in
sport and leisure, ranging from race and ethnicity to gender,
sexual orientation, disability, religion and class. Presenting
research-based strategies in support of social justice, this book
places the experiences of disadvantaged communities centre stage.
It addresses issues affecting participation, inclusion and
engagement in sport, while discussing the challenges faced by
specific groups such as Muslim women and LGBT young people.
Including original theoretical and methodological insights, it
argues that the experiences of these marginalised groups can shed a
light on the political struggles taking place over the significance
of sport and leisure in society today. Sport, Leisure and Social
Justice is fascinating reading for students and academics with an
interest in sport and politics, sport and social problems, gender
studies, race and ethnicity studies, or the sociology of sport.
