Sinopsis

This insightful Handbook explores how sport intersects the experiences of asylum seekers, refugees, workers and migrants. Editors Joseph Maguire, Katie Liston and Mark Falcous bring together esteemed experts to capture the complex dynamics surrounding how sport migrations are embedded in the wider power struggles that characterize global sport.



Analysing a range of case studies across the globe, chapter authors examine the control exercised by various stakeholders, both sporting and non-sporting, and how their actions contour migration experiences. They cover matters such as globalization, national identity, and intercultural communication, as well as in-depth issues including talent pipelines, bridgeheads and the stereotyping of athletes from different class, ethnic and gender groups. The dynamics of sports migration are highlighted when revealing the tensions concerning the promotion of commercial spectacle versus the advocacy of national and local identities, and the search for short term viability versus longer term development.



The Handbook on Sport and Migration is invaluable for students and scholars of sport law, sociology, migration, policy and globalization. It will also appeal to those working in sport management, sport psychology, exercise sciences, kinesiology, and international migration policy.
