Paperback. Condition: New. This book introduces the fundamentals of sport sociology and social issues in sport for students of physical education (PE) and coaching. It provides an accessible, jargon-free foundation for understanding the relationships between sport, education, and wider society that puts into context the reader's applied studies in PE and coaching.Drawing on cutting-edge research, this book examines core topics in the study of sport and society, including the origins of sport, sport education, sport as business, commodification, globalisation, sport and health, sport and the media, gender, migration, and Indigenous people in sport. Throughout this book, in-depth 'commentary' pieces look closely at particular pieces of research that illustrate the sociological themes being examined, from the impact of sport media on school children to the effects of hegemonic masculinity in rugby.This book is invaluable reading for any course on sport and society, physical education, sports coaching, or sport development.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book posits that during Australia s colonial period (1788 1900), all sport, including the hegemonic football codes (rugby union and Australian rules football), was closely tied to British nationalism. The first part of this book, drawing from theories articulated by Tony Collins and Andy Harper, argues that both rugby union and Australian rules in colonial Australia were expressions of British nationalism, promoted and reinforced by the colonial power structures. Meanwhile, soccer, despite its widespread popularity in Britain, was excluded as the hegemonic football code from the colonial sporting landscape. The author argues that the origins of colonial football can be traced to the independent boys school system, where football was first developed before spreading to the wider community. The second part of this book shifts focus to senior community sport, exploring its role as an extension of British nationalism beyond the school system. Through case studies of horse racing, cricket, yachting, and lawn bowls, this book demonstrates how these activities reinforced British cultural identity within colonial communities but were linked to commercial interests. While the organizational structures and purposes of school-based and adult community-based sports differed, this analysis reveals that both ultimately served to affirm British nationalist ideals. School sports were closely tied to education, discipline, and the cultivation of elite leadership, while adult community sports catered more to leisure, entertainment, and social cohesion. Despite these distinctions, both realms contributed to the broader narrative of colonial sport as a vehicle for British cultural hegemony. Relevant to scholars and students in both sports studies and history, this book provides a timely reset for Australian sporting history.
