Engaging and accessible, Sport and Peace: A Sociological Perspective takes a fresh, innovative look at the nuanced and controversial relationship between sport and peace. Although sport is heralded as a powerful tool for social good, drawing attention to causes such as conflict resolution, HIVprevention, environmental initiatives, and improved international relationships, it also continues to reflect and reproduce social inequalities in ways commonly overlooked by those invested in the sport-for-peace movement. Divided into five parts, the text examines current literature in the fieldsof sport and peace through the lens of critical social theory while introducing students to all sides of this complex debate and proposing practical solutions for the future. | Sport and Peace by Brian Wilson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
