Sport, Race &; Ethnicity : Narratives of Difference & Diversity

This provocative collection brings together some of the leading historians, sociologists, political scientists, and cultural theorists on an ambitious range of topics dealing with sport, diversity and difference. The book is both diverse and inclusive, for it considered race, ethnicity and aboriginality in tandem; too often these themes are segmented into separate studies. The collection features vibrant examples from different eras, places and spaces -- wherein co-themes like post-colonialism, gender and media representation are embedded.
