Abstract |
520
|
|
$a"The Sociology of Sports: An Introduction, Third Edition represents a fresh approach to the study of sport in society. It provides a straightforward presentation of key sociological concepts and issues that pertain to the study and analysis of sport in contemporary society (such as culture, socialization, race/ethnicity, gender, economics, religion, politics, deviance, violence, high school and college sports, and sportsmanship). While providing a critical examination of sport, this text also highlights many of sports' positive features. In this, the third edition of The Sociology of Sports: An Introduction, the authors have significantly updated statistics/data and information found in each chapter and many of the "Connecting Sports and Popular Culture" Boxes have also been revised or replaced. Incorporated into this edition is the impact of a global pandemic (SARS-CoV-2, or COVID-19) that wreaked havoc around the world and impacted sports at all levels and in all sorts of ways and the social movements of "Black Lives Matter" and "Me Too" that impacted sports and became of paramount importance from a sociological perspective. The BLM social movement led to many sweeping changes and contributed to the demise of the NFL's Washington franchise's racist nickname. The BLM movement also contributed to an increasing number of athletes becoming socially active in creating social change. Another topic that came to the forefront in recent years discussed in this text is the "pay for play" concept wherein college athletes demanded greater compensation and, at the very least, the right to profit off of their own names, images and likeness."--$cProvided by publisher. |
