This work argues that sport is not neutral, asocial or apolitical
and so it needs to be assessed in its widest cultural context to be
understood. It examines how sport is acted upon by these influences
and creates influences of its own. The book provides a
comprehensive survey of sport in Britain since 1945 and examines
its place in British culture. It offers a critical introduction to
existing literature on the subject and places contemporary sport in
the context of recent history. The author discusses issues of
politics, national identity, gender, class and race and explores
representations of sport in the media. Sports covered include:
football, rugby, tennis and polo.
