As athletes of today grapple with how to use their public platforms
to fight for activist causes, Sport and Apartheid South Africa:
Histories of Politics, Power, and Protest examines a set of longer
histories of sport, ‘race’, and activism. The book seeks to
uncover and understand new historical aspects of apartheid and
sport, challenge myths, and rethink dominant narratives. It
examines the subject of racially segregated sport in South Africa
from national and transnational perspectives, asking questions
about how athletes and administrators, transnational anti-apartheid
groups and activists, and politicians around the world interpreted
and internalized racial segregation in South Africa. By connecting
the local to the global, this book illuminates the ways in which
apartheid sport animated national and international debates,
ranging from racism and human rights to Cold War politics and
post-colonialism. Sport and Apartheid South Africa is a significant
new contribution to the study of race and politics in sport and
will be a great resource for academics, researchers, and advanced
students of History, Politics, International Relations, Sociology,
and Political Geography. The chapters in this book were originally
published in The International Journal of the History of Sport.
