Characterizing constraints of leisure: A Foucaultian analysis of leisure constraints
Leisure constraint literature has typically assumed that constraints prevent or modify participation in leisure. In this paper, I take up the work of Michel Foucault (1926–1984) to show that social constraints are not merely restricting of leisure practices. When constraints are characterized as enabling as well as restricting, it is possible to explore when and how constraints enable and to plan to intervene with enabling constraints to improve …
A New Sport Ethics: Taking König Seriously
In an earlier issue of the International Review for the Sociology of Sport, Eugen König argued that doping exposes sport as an enterprise which is inherently exploitative (1995). Doping is consistent with other practices and technologies which push human limits of performance but which are arbitrarily included as part of 'pure', 'natural', and 'authentic' sport only because they are not against the rules. By circumscribing what is to count as eth…

What’s Queer about Studying Up? A Response to Messner
We argue that Messner’s 1996 address makes it acceptable to write about queer theory as long as the discourse reproduces the stable knowledge bases and political aims of a new hegemonic “critical” sports studies. This is not queer “studying up”; it is “sociology of sport as usual.” A queer “studying up” traces and deconstructs the processes that produce heterosexuality as “the normal” in sport, and it requires the sport sociologist to be reflexiv…
In Defense of a Worldly Separatism
In this response to Kathleen Martindale and Martha Saunders's “Realizing Love and Justice: Lesbian Ethics in the Upper and Lower Case,” which appeared in Hypatia 7(4), I argue that a worldly separatism depends upon taking attention from those in positions of dominance and redirecting it to members of nondominant groups, as apolitical, worldly act of resistance
