Reviews
"This collection is timely and unique - an outstanding example of what it means to do critical youth studies in the current historical moment. In this first-rate collection the authors have thoughtfully bridged key theoretical perspectives on culture and politics with an impressive range of topics on youth and sport. Youth Culture and Sport is a must-read for those seeking to better understand the integral connection between youth and sporting cultures - especially students, instructors, and researchers interested in the study of media, social inequality, consumption, politics, and subcultures." --Brian Wilson, Associate Professor of Socio-Cultural Studies, School of Human Kinetics, University of British Columbia "In this intriguing volume, Youth Culture and Sport positively challenges us to rethink the identities "youth" and the cultural locations of sport in the context of contemporary neo-liberal politics and global economic relations. Giardina, Donnelly, and contributors pose significant interventions to received understandings concerning the relationship between sport and cultures of youth." --Daniel Thomas Cook, Associate Professor of Childhood Studies, Rutgers University

Synopsis
Youth Culture and Sport critically interrogates and challenges contemporary articulations of race, class, gender, and sexual relations circulating throughout popular iterations of youth sporting culture in late-capitalism. Written against the backdrop of important changes in social, cultural, political, and economic dynamics taking place in corporate culture's war on kids, this exciting new volume marks the first anthology to critically examine the intersection of youth culture and sport in an age of global uncertainty. Bringing together leading scholars from cultural studies, gender studies, sociology, sport studies, and related fields, chapters range in scope from 'action' sport subcultures and community redevelopment programs to the cultural politics of white masculinity and Nike advertising. It is a must read for anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the role sport plays in the construction of experiences, identities, practices, and social differences of contemporary youth culture., Youth Culture and Sport critically interrogates and challenges contemporary articulations of race, class, gender, and sexual relations circulating throughout popular iterations of youth sporting culture in late-capitalism., P EM Youth Culture and Sport /EM critically interrogates and challenges contemporary articulations of race, class, gender, and sexual relations circulating throughout popular iterations of youth sporting culture in late-capitalism.
