Hegemony and Sport
How does power work in sport, especially when there seems to be no one enforcing unspoken rules? Power is about influence and relationships, and the ability to discipline, control, and steer the actions – and even the thoughts – of others. This can be done in different ways: directly, using force or “hard” methods such as punishment for breaking laws; or indirectly, without the use of harsh sanctions or physical violence. One way of analyzing pow…
Doping in Sport and Fitness
Doping, as both practice and phenomenon, has largely been approached as a question of socio-cultural context and structures. Doping in Sport and Fitness argues that rigid differentiations between doping contexts - such as sport/fitness or elite/recreational - are less clear than it might seem. Breaking down these boundaries allows for a more complete understanding of substance use patterns, behaviours, and policy responses related to sport, fitne…

Gaelic games provide a unique focus on the topic of sport and the lockdown; they ar…

Who Governs a Movement? The Iaaf and Road-Running—Historical and Contemporary Considerations
During the 1970s and the 1980s, road-running experienced an extraordinary growth in terms of participants and running events. Even though the runners mainly participated for reasons of well-being and fitness, and less for competition, the world governing body of track and field, the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), attempted to govern and profit off the running movement from the end of the 1970s onward. This paper utiliz…
