Book Synopsis Indigenous People, Race Relations and Australian Sport by : Christopher J. Hallinan
Download or read book Indigenous People, Race Relations and Australian Sport written by Christopher J. Hallinan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indigenous peoples of Australia have a proud history of participation and the achievement of excellence in Australian sports. Historically, Australian sports have provided a rare and important social context in which Indigenous Australians could engage with and participate in non-Indigenous society. Today, Indigenous Australian people in sports continue to provide important points of reference around which national public dialogue about racial and cultural relations in Australia takes place. Yet much media coverage surrounding these issues and almost all academic interest concerning Indigenous people and Australian sports is constructed from non-Indigenous perspectives. With a few notable exceptions, the racial and cultural implications of Australian sports as viewed from an Indigenous Australian Studies perspective remains understudied. The media coverage and academic discussion of Indigenous people and Australian sports is largely constructed within the context of Anglo-Australian nationalist discourse, and becomes most emphasised when reporting on aspects of ‘racial and cultural’ explanations of Indigenous sporting excellence and failures associated anomalous behaviour. This book investigates the many ways that Indigenous Australians have engaged with Australian sports and the racial and cultural readings that have been associated with these engagements. Questions concerning the importance that sports play in constructions of Australian indigeneities and the extent to which these have been maintained as marginal to Australian national identity are the central critical themes of this book. This book was published as a special issue of Sport in Society.

Book Synopsis Sport, Race and Ethnicity by : Katie Liston
Download or read book Sport, Race and Ethnicity written by Katie Liston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyses of racialisation processes within and beyond sport would be incomplete without a consideration of ethnicity and ethnic identities. Why? Because ethnicity, as a concept and as a focus for research, captures better the diverse experiences of social groups and the scope of belonging. Ethnic identities contribute to the way race and racism is constructed and experienced in sport, and to the ways in which racial ideologies are created, recreated and contested. Readers will find here a stimulating array of papers that capture varied aspects of the sport, race and ethnicity nexus around the world. The journey stretches as far afield as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ghana and the USA and, in so doing, it draws on a range of disciplinary approaches that converge or diverge by degrees. Such diversity is to be welcomed in an academic field characterized increasingly by the potential richness of people's experiences of sport, race and ethnicity within various cultural contexts. Included here are papers from a range of disciplines and approaches including sociology, politics, sports feminisms, critical race theory, a strengths perspective, Kaupapa Māori Theory, history and sports development. This book was published as a special issue of Sport and Society.

Book Synopsis Black and Proud by : Matthew Klugman
Download or read book Black and Proud written by Matthew Klugman and published by . This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when racial abuse was entrenched in Australian sport but rarely discussed, and indigenous AFL players still received regular death threats, Nicky Winmar was photographed lifting his jumper and pointing with pride to the colour of his skin--an image that changed the nation. Controversy erupted, race and football dominated public debate and the AFL announced that racial abuse was reportable, setting the scene for the first ever sporting racial vilification laws. Once 'part of the game', racial abuse by AFL players and spectators became socially unacceptable. Yet the enduring appeal of this image also lies in the continued racism and discrimination faced by Australia's indigenous peoples, who endure appalling rates of disease and crime, life expectancies 20 years below non-indigenous Australians, ongoing struggles for social and cultural recognition, and controversial government policing strategies and welfare interventions. On what is now the 20th anniversary of this image, Black and Proud (working title) traces a story of triumph and enduring social and cultural loss.

Book Synopsis Managing Expectations and Policy Responses to Racism in Sport by : Keir Reeves
Download or read book Managing Expectations and Policy Responses to Racism in Sport written by Keir Reeves and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents research on policy responses to racism in sporting codes, predominantly Australian Rules football, in a global context. While the three guest editors are based in Australia, and their work pertains to the uniquely domestic game of Australian Rules football, the outcomes, research vectors and key issues from this research are part of a much larger on-going international conversation that is equally relevant when considering, for instance, racism in English Premier League football, first class cricket and basketball. The book is an outcome of an Australian Research Council (ARC) funded project titled Assessing the Australian Football League’s Racial and Religious Vilification Laws to Promote Community Harmony, Multiculturalism and Reconciliation, which investigated social participation and the impact of the Australian Football League’s anti-racial vilification policy since its introduction in 1995. This book was published as a special issue of Sport in Society.
Book Synopsis The Real and the Unreal by : Stella Coram
Download or read book The Real and the Unreal written by Stella Coram and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the representation of indigenous athletes competing in the Australian Football League within popular print content. It is proposed that depictions of Australian indigenous athletes conform to racial stereotypes of the Other in sport and that narratives draw on the precept 'un' to convey contradictory meaning. For example, to praise indigenous athletic performance, as in unreal, and or to criticise underperformance on or off the field, as in unreliable or unworthy. The net effect of this is to highlight the changing significance of race and racism particularly in terms of the formation of broad-base social understanding of Australian indigenous peoples.

In the second part of the book, a series of chapter-length case studies, spanning sports from boxing to fell running and themes from gender to fandom, demonstrate the challenges and rewards of ethnographic research in the context of sport and exercise, helping students and researchers to develop a solid understanding of qualitative research at both a theoretical and a practical level.

Book Synopsis Indigenous Sport and Nation-Building by : Eivind Å. Skille
Download or read book Indigenous Sport and Nation-Building written by Eivind Å. Skille and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the social, political, and cultural dimensions of Indigenous sport and nation-building. Focusing on the Indigenous Sámi of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia, it addresses how colonization variously impacts organizational arrangements and everyday sporting life in a modern world. Through detailed case data from the Norwegian side of Sápmi (the land of the Sámi), this book provides a critical and contemporary perspective of post-colonial influences and their impacts on sport. The study uses concepts of conventions, citizenship and communities, to examine the tenuous roles of Indigenous-based sport organizations and clubs towards the building of an Indigenous nation. The book further draws together international, national, and local Sámi experiences to address the communal and assimilative influences that sport brings for people in the North Calotte. Taken together, the book signals the importance of sport in future community development and the (re)emergence of Indigenous culture. Appealing to policy makers and scholars alike, the book will be of particular interest to researchers in sport sociology, Indigenous studies and post colonialism. It also provides essential insight for public officials and administrators of sport and/or Indigenous issues at various levels of public office.
