Descripción Softcover. Condición: New. Illustrated. A revealing look at gender issues in contemporary sport.From beer ads in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue to four-year-old boys and girls playing soccer; from male athletes sexual violence against women to homophobia and racism in sport, Out of Play analyzes connections between gender and sport from the 1980s to the present. The book illuminates a wide range of contemporary issues in popular culture, childrens sports, and womens and mens college and professional sports. Each chapter is preceded by a short introduction that lays out the context in which the piece was written. Drawing on his own memories as a former athlete, informal observations of his childrens sports activities, and more formal research such as life-history interviews with athletes and content analyses of sports media, Michael A. Messner presents a multifaceted picture of gender constructed through an array of personalities, institutions, cultural symbols, and everyday interactions.This book provides a valuable introduction to the issues concerning gender in sport while also maintaining a sophisticated level of analysis Messners innovative work certainly deserves reprinting, and this volume conveniently self-selects some of his most influential arguments. - SignsIn Out of Play, Michael Messner tells a fascinating story about the gender dynamics at play in late twentieth-century organized sports The brilliance of Messners volume lies in its ability to combine analysis of materially based institutional structures and media-based representations that together project the gender ideologies that at any given moment help constitute the world of sports. - American Journal of PlayMessner takes the topic of gender to new heights will be an appealing, eye-opening, and frightening read for anyone interested in sports, womens studies, gender studies, or American culture in general. - CHOICEThere is a tremendous range, depth, and quality to Messners scholarship that has had a profound impact on the field. Reading the selections is somewhat akin to retracing the innovations and developments of the field over the past two decades-and Messner has been at the cutting edge at every turn. - Douglas Hartmann, author of Race, Culture, and the Revolt of the Black Athlete: The 1968 Olympic Protests and Their Aftermath.
