Description: |
"This book presents a broad selection of research on connections between sports and nationalism in Latin American and the Latino USA. It brings a critical cultural studies approach to studies of both historical and contemporary contexts from throughout the Americas, with a focus on the region's emblematic sport of soccer, as well as baseball, boxing, paraolympic sports, surfing, tennis and basketball, among others"-- |
Synopsis: |
This collection interrogates sports in Latin America as a key terrain in which nation is defined and populations are interpellated through emotionally charged practices (state policy, media representations, and sports play itself by professionals, national teams and amateurs) of inclusion and exclusion. |
