Sporting Pedagogies: Performing Culture & Identity in the Global Arena
Автор:Michael D. Giardina Год: 2005 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 205 ISBN: 0820471348 Book DescriptionFocusing on such varied sites as British cinema, global celebrity, racialized education policy, and Disney, Sporting Pedagogies illustrates how trans/national sporting cultures, intermediaries, and institutions actively work as pedagogical sites to hegemonically re-inscribe and re-present neo-liberal discourses on sport, culture, nation, and democracy throughout the ascendant global capitalist order. Written in the progressive tradition of Norman K. Denzin, Henry Giroux, LawrenceGrossberg, and Peter McLaren, Michael D. Giardina poignantly-and at times, devastatingly-captures the shifting terrain of social and political contestation and negotiation at play in the modern world. This book is a must-read for students in cultural studies, communications research, sport studies, and globalization.
