Any study of sport is incomplete without consideration of its
social function and structures, its economic impacts both locally
and globally, and its political dimension - particularly when used
by nations for competitive gain. Sport Sociology provides a
comprehensive overview for any student taking a course on the
subject at college or university, including both established and
emergent themes, from issues around power, diversity and
consumerism through to newer topics such as the digital environment
and climate change - both now covered in new individual chapters.
Other chapters have been fully revised to include up-to-date
literature and case studies, as well as new key terms and
reflective tasks. A new 'Key Thinker' box feature included in each
chapter introduces readers to an esteemed theorist relevant for the
chapter topic to help link theoretical concepts to practice and
offer up suggestive research directions for student assessment.
