Deviant Leisure and Events of Deviance : A Transgressive Compendium, Hardback Book

Deviant Leisure and Events of Deviance : A Transgressive Compendium Hardback

Edited by Ian R. Lamond, Rosie Garland

Part of the Leisure Studies in a Global Era series

Hardback

Description

This volume is the first to draw together theoretical reflection, empirical research, and critical reflection on practice occurring at the juncture of critical approaches in leisure studies and event studies within diverse explorations of deviance.

It includes chapters on games and gaming; performing queerness; events around being kinkster; drugs and sex, LGBTQ+ events and activism, and goth subculture.

These are combined with poetry, personal reflection and artwork, much of which has been created by contributors.

The compendium draws on inquiry undertaken by contributors from a wide spectrum of academic disciplines, as well as deviant leisure practitioners/event organisers.

It seeks to expand the cultural and academic articulation of deviance into other disciplines and to develop new perspectives on deviant leisure and deviant leisure practice.

It speaks to students, researchers, and practitioners working or interested in critical leisure and event studies, queer theory, cultural theory, burlesque/circus studies, media studies, and discourse studies.
