Book Futbologias  Futbol  identidad y violencia en America Latina

Download or read book Futbologias Futbol identidad y violencia en America Latina written by Pablo Alabarces and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pesar del peso descomunal que el fútbol ocupa en múltiples espacios de la vida cotidiana, económica, política y cultural de las sociedades latinoamericanas, sólo en los últimos veinte años puede hablarse de la invención de un campo de estudios relativamente autónomo en las ciencias sociales de América Latina. Desde los trabajos fundadores de Roberto Da Matta y Eduardo Archetti, los investigadores del continente han producido cada vez más estudios sistemáticos, desde miradas interdisciplinarias (la antropología, la sociología, los estudios culturales, los análisis de medios, la historia) que permiten analizar cómo el deporte-espectáculo actúa como arena pública en el proceso de construcción de identidades sociales y culturales diversas (regionales, locales, nacionales y post-nacionales; genéricas, generacionales, de clase; fanáticos o deportistas). ¿Cómo se expresa en el fútbol una identidad como ecuatoriano, como hombre o como obrero? ¿Qué significa ser “hincha” de determinado club? ¿Qué significa ser jugador de una selección nacional? O incluso, ¿cómo se debe actuar en tanto ciudadano de un país en ocasión de un partido de la propia selección? Los artículos presentados por los miembros del Grupo de Trabajo sobre Deporte y Sociedad de CLACSO buscan responder a interrogantes de este tipo indagando diversos escenarios nacionales: Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Chile, Ecuador, Uruguay. Cada uno de estos estudios constituye una pieza de un rompecabezas de dos caras: por un lado, contribuyen a problematizar y conocer el proceso de formación de identidades e imaginarios en cada uno de nuestros países; por el otro, aportan un conocimiento de base para realizar estudios comparados sobre el papel del fútbol en la formación de identidades en América Latina.

  • Author : Matthew Brown
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2023-01-10
  • ISBN : 0300268440
  • Pages : 286 pages

Download or read book Sports in South America written by Matthew Brown and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to examine the transformation of sporting cultures in South America in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries Sports in South America follows the transformation of sporting cultures in South America leading up to Uruguay’s hosting of the first FIFA Men’s World Cup in 1930. Matthew Brown shows how South American soccer culture, envied worldwide, sprang out of societies that were already playing and watching games well before British sportsmen arrived to teach “the beautiful game.” These vibrant and distinct sporting traditions, including cycling, boxing, cockfighting, bullfighting, cricket, baseball, and horse racing, were marked by South American societies’ Indigenous and colonial pasts and by their leaders’ desire to participate in what they saw as a global movement toward human progress. Drawing on a wealth of original archival research, Brown debunks legends, highlights the stories of forgotten sportswomen and Indigenous sports, and unpacks the social and cultural connections within South America and with the rest of the world.

Book Historicizing the Pan American Games

Download or read book Historicizing the Pan American Games written by Bruce Kidd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pan-American Games, begun officially in 1951 in Buenos Aires and held in every region of the western hemisphere, have become one of the largest multi-sport games in the world. 6,132 athletes from 41 countries competed in 48 sports in the 2015 Games in Toronto, Canada. The Games are simultaneously an avenue for the spread of the Olympic Movement across the Americas, a stage for competing ideologies of Pan-American unity, and an occasion for host city infrastructural stimulus and economic development. And yet until this volume, the Games have never been studied as a single entity from a scholarly viewpoint. Historicizing the Pan-American Games presents 12 original articles on the Games. Topics range from the origins of the Games in the period between the world wars, to their urban, hemispheric and cultural legacies, to the policy implications of specific Games for international sport. The entire collection is set against the shifting economic, social, political, cultural, sporting and artistic contexts of the turbulent western hemisphere. Historicizing the Pan-American Games makes a significant contribution to the literature on major games, Olympic sport and sport in the western hemisphere. This book was previously published as a special issue of The International Journal of the History of Sport.

Book Routledge Handbook of Football Studies

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Football Studies written by John Hughson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Football is unquestionably the world’s most popular and influential sport. There is no corner of the globe in which the game is not played or followed. More countries are affiliated to FIFA, football’s governing body, than to the United Nations. The sport has therefore become an important component of our social, cultural, political and economic life. The Routledge Handbook of Football Studies is a landmark work of reference, going further than any other book in considering the historical and contemporary significance of football around the world. Written by a team of leading sport scholars, the book covers a broad range of disciplines from history, sociology, politics and business, to philosophy, law and media studies. The central section of the book examines key themes and issues in football studies, such as the World Cup and international competition, governance and ownership, fandom and celebrity. The concluding section offers in-depth surveys of the culture and organisation of football in each of the regional confederations, from UEFA to CONCACAF. This book will be fascinating reading for any serious football fan and an essential resource for advanced students or scholars undertaking research in football or sport studies, and any practitioner or policy-maker working in football.

Book Sports around the World  4 volumes

Download or read book Sports around the World 4 volumes written by John Nauright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-04-06 with total page 2668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multivolume set is much more than a collection of essays on sports and sporting cultures from around the world: it also details how and why sports are played wherever they exist, and examines key charismatic athletes from around the world who have transcended their sports. Sports Around the World: History, Culture, and Practice provides a unique, global overview of sports and sports cultures. Unlike most works of this type, this book provides both essays that examine general topics, such as globalization and sport, international relations and sport, and tourism and sport, as well as essays on sports history, culture, and practice in world regions—for example, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and Oceania—in order to provide a more global perspective. These essays are followed by entries on specific sports, world athletes, stadiums and arenas, famous games and matches, and major controversies. Spanning topics as varied as modern professional cycling to the fictional movie Rocky to the deadly ball game of the ancient Mayans, the first three volumes contain overview essays and entries for specific sports that have been and are currently practiced around the world. The fourth volume provides a compendium of information on the winners of major sporting competitions from around the world. Readers will gain invaluable insights into how sports have been enjoyed throughout all of human culture, and more fully comprehend their cultural contexts. The entries provide suggestions for further reading on each topic—helpful to general readers, students with school projects, university students and academics alike. Additionally, the four-volume Sports Around the World spotlights key charismatic athletes who have changed a sport or become more than just an outstanding player.

Book Re defining Children   s Participation in the Countries of the South

Download or read book Re defining Children s Participation in the Countries of the South written by Graciela Tonon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is centered on the participation of children in countries of the South. In this sense, it will review the possibilities of children's participation, as well as their forms of participation in different contexts of daily life. There has been a tendency to underestimate children’s role as active constructors of their surrounding social space, as well as of the internalized interpretations of the way social life operates. Today it is necessary to recognize that children are agents actively involved in the construction of their own lives and the life of the societies they live in; and in this sense, it is important to consider and re-signify the participation of boys and girls as a fundamental pillar in the process of building societies in the 21st century. The book contains chapters that re-significate children’s participation in different countries from South America and South Africa, in relation with different topics: well-being, methods, citizenship, poverty, education, rurality, ethics and human rights.
