How do migrant youth negotiate their role in society through sport
and leisure practices? How can political theory and qualitative
critical research work together to make sense of these processes?
These are among the questions that led to a long-term investigation
of young males' sport practices in Ireland, possibly the most
fertile contemporary setting for the analysis of questions of sport
and identity. Youth Sport, Migration and Culture emphasises the
epistemological and ethical urgency of doing research with rather
than on young people. Engaging with the social changes in Irish
society through the eyes of children of immigrants growing up in
Ireland, the book looks closely at young people's leisure practices
in multi-ethnic contexts, and at issues of inclusion in relation to
public discourses around 'national identity' and immigration.
Offering compelling analysis of how ideas of race and racism are
elaborated through sport, this book is fascinating reading for
anybody with an interest in the sociology of sport, sport
development or youth culture.
