Description

High-performance sport, like other social and cultural formations, is a site of social, economic and racial inequalities emerging from larger histories of colonialism and capitalism.

In this introductory text, the authors explore the nature of historical and contemporary social inequality in high-performance sport, both globally and locally - understanding high-performance sport as a model that is emulated on other sports fields.

In addition, the authors examine the enduring appeal of high-performance sport and its role in the making of identity as well as high-performance sport as a site for resisting the forces of colonialism and capitalism.
