Book Power Played

  • Author : Derek Silva
  • Publisher : UBC Press
  • Release : 2022-10-01
  • ISBN : 0774867825
  • Pages : 411 pages

Download or read book Power Played written by Derek Silva and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2022-10-01 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative collection argues that modern sport can be characterized by problematic power relations linked to violence, harm, deviance, and punishment. On the one hand, sport is a mainstay of community building, an expression of solidarity, and a means to mental and social health. On the other, there is the star player who commits sexual violence, the trans athlete whose achievements are dismissed as fraudulent, or the racist nationalism of the impassioned sports fan. Power Played illuminates how criminal/judicial discourses and practices reinforce social inequalities and blows the whistle on the harm, violence, and exploitation embedded in sport.

Book Mallparks

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael T. Friedman
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2023-07-15
  • ISBN : 1501769308
  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book Mallparks written by Michael T. Friedman and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Mallparks, Michael T. Friedman observes that as cathedrals represented power relations in medieval towns and skyscrapers epitomized those within industrial cities, sports stadiums exemplify urban American consumption at the turn of the twenty-first century. Grounded in Henri Lefebvre and George Ritzer's spatial theories in their analyses of consumption spaces, Mallparks examines how the designers of this generation of baseball stadiums follow the principles of theme park and shopping mall design to create highly effective and efficient consumption sites. In his exploration of these contemporary cathedrals of sport and consumption, Friedman discusses the history of stadium design, the amenities and aesthetics of stadium spaces, and the intentions and conceptions of architects, team officials, and civic leaders. He grounds his analysis in case studies of Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore; Fenway Park in Boston; Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles; Nationals Park in Washington, DC; Target Field in Minneapolis; and Truist Park in Atlanta.
