CFP: Special Issue of the Journal of Sport Management, “Race and Ethnicity”

CALL FOR PAPERS

Special Issue of the Journal of Sport Management
“Race and Ethnicity”

Research suggests that psychological, sociological, and economic rudiments of race and ethnicity often influence individuals’ sport attitudes, interests, identity, behaviors, experiences, and thus, their overall involvement in sport. As such, there is a need to have theoretical and applied knowledge concerning developing, promoting, delivering, and managing sport in a manner that is reflective of, and responsive to the racially and ethnically diverse stakeholders served (e.g., athletes/participants, coaches, administrators, spectators, media, corporate partners).

The special issue of the Journal of Sport Management on “Race and Ethnicity” seeks to address the dearth of research and critical analyses concerning race and ethnicity within the sport management literature. It is the intent of this special issue to provide a collection of research and critical analyses on race and ethnicity in sport and, thus, serve as a basis for future sport management research by providing foundations and insights for investigating the permeations of race and ethnicity within sport.

Submissions from various epistemologies, methodologies, (qualitative, quantitative, historical, or comparative), ideologies, conceptual frameworks, and levels of analysis are welcome. Submissions should illuminate the unique dynamics that influence sport involvement of stakeholders who are People of Color (i.e., those of African, Asian, Pacific Island, Native American, and Hispanic ancestry), other racial and ethnic minorities, and those who are racially and ethnically disenfranchised throughout the
world (e.g., Aborigines of Australia, Blacks in South Africa). Lastly, submissions should offer insight into the manner in which sport management practices (e.g., administration, human resources management, organizational theory, student-athlete development, employee satisfaction, leadership, event management, marketing, sponsorship, consumer behavior, promotions, communications) should respond to matters of race and ethnicity.

Manuscripts should follow the guidelines in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th Edition), and should be prepared in accordance with the Journal of Sport Management “Instruction to Authors” (http://www.humankinetics.com/JSM/journalAbout.cfm). Manuscripts must not be submitted to another journal while they are under review by the Journal of Sport Management nor should they have been previously published. Manuscripts will be subject to a triple blind review.

Manuscripts should be submitted no later than February 1, 2009 via e-mail to the Guest Editor:

Call for Papers

The field of postcolonial studies has recently been called on to redress its lack of sustained attention to, and engagement with, popular cultural practices and forms. A survey of the anthologies and major collections informing the field suggest the point is a legitimate one. While scholars such as Arjun Appadurai, Paul Gilroy, and Kobena Mercer engage with popular cultural practices of diasporic and migrant communities, the postcolonial field has shown less attention to popular cultural forms as productive sites for exploring the kinds of questions that animate it.

Taking on this challenge, we invite submissions from across disciplines to engage with the theme of postcolonial popular cultures. Theoretical and disciplinary inquiries may include the constitution of postcolonial popular cultures, the function, role of the postcolonial in postcolonial popular culture, and the critical perspective offered by postcolonial studies. What can postcolonial studies contribute to the study and understanding of popular culture that has not been addressed by cultural studies? How would an examination of contemporary popular cultural practices influence significant areas of postcolonial theorizing: hybridity, resistance, the politics of representation? How would it affect the field’s focus on a certain literary and theoretical canon, and its arguably textual orientation? What economies of value shape the relative exclusion of popular culture in postcolonial studies?

Beyond this, we are concerned to ask whether an emphasis on postcolonial popular culture challenges specific structures of power, or whether popular cultural forms and practices are complicit with the institutions and operations postcolonial studies seek to challenge? In a period of rapid commodification and intense consumerism, what is at stake when we speak of postcolonial popular cultures? What impact is made on postcolonial cultural expressions by the ‘global popular’?

These questions are by no means exhaustive; they are offered as a point of entry for further discussion on the theme of postcolonial popular culture. Postcolonial popular culture is defined in a broad and inclusive way to incorporate lived and textual cultures, the mass media, ways of life, and discursive modes of representation. Central to the formation of postcolonial popular cultures are articulations of the economic, social and political spheres and the conference welcomes contributions that will highlight these issues.

Papers from across disciplines are invited to address aspects of Postcolonial Popular Culture, including:

Popular culture and resistance
Everyday popular cultural practices
Sport
Music
Dance
Body cultures
Fashion/clothing
Food
Television and other broadcast media
Online games, computer and other technologies
Street and community theatre
Shopping

To maintain the integrity of discussions, we ask that submissions address the question of popular culture in relation to some aspect of the field of postcolonial studies. We invite abstracts of 250-300 words and a short bio of 100 words to be sent to Dr Brendan Hokowhitu (Brendan.hokowhitu@stonebow.otago.ac.nz) by 15 October, 2008.

CFP: Teaching American Culture Studies in a Global Society

CALL FOR PAPERS

Theme Issue: Teaching American Culture Studies in a Global Society


America, because of its unique position in time and place, occupies a crucial role in human history, especially with regard to aspirations and opportunities. It has developed a dynamic which has created and melded cultures into what is called "The American Way" or "The American Dream." Scholars in the U.S. and abroad have been drawn to the study of this dynamic as programs addressing American culture studies proliferate wordwide. In light of this, The Journal of American Culture is publishing a theme issue devoted to the topic of teaching American culture studies from a global perspective, focusing on the ways in which the internalization of the modern world has affected the study of America both at home and elsewhere. Essays should not be "how to" pieces for the classroom but rather papers that emphasize the teacher-scholar and are more oriented toward the theory and practice of teaching American culture as well as critical pedagogy. One approach to this topic might be to construct an essay from the point of view of an instructor delivering three lectures to graduating Ph.D. students who will be teaching the next generation of scholars on the mixing and complexity inherent in the development of American cultural studies. Avoid excessive first-person, bibliographies, or lists of readings.

Submissions, generally 15-25 pages in length, are to be original scholarly manuscripts formatted according to MLA style guidelines using in-text citations with author's name and page number. Endnotes and works cited should appear at the end of the paper. In light of space limitations, please avoid excessive use of endnotes.

This issue will be edited by Ray B. Browne (rbrowne@bgsu.edu) and Kathy Merlock Jackson (kmjackson@vwc.edu). Direct inquiries to either editor.

Send completed manuscripts to The Journal of American Culture at jac@vwc.edu or The Journal of American Culture, Virginia Wesleyan College, 1584 Wesleyan Drive, Norfolk, VA 23502.

The deadline for submission is December 31, 2009.

SEMINAR: Modern Diana: Women and the Making of Sport Hunting, 1870-1920

CHICAGO SEMINAR ON SPORT AND CULTURE

SPONSORED BY NORTHEASTERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY AND THE NEWBERRY LIBRARY


Oct. 17, 2008

Modern Diana: Women and the Making of Sport Hunting, 1870-1920

Andrea Smalley,
Dept. of History
Northern Illinois University


We are pleased to invite you to the Chicago Seminar on Sport and Culture at the Newberry Library, co-sponsored by Northeastern Illinois University and North Central College. All sessions begin at 3:30 PM. The lectures are open to the public at no charge. The Newberry Library is located at 60 W. Walton, Chicago, IL. Copies of the paper are available for people planning to attend. Please contact Steve Riess, co chairman of the seminar (s-riess@neiu.edu).


Precis:

The connection between hunting and masculinity has become a commonplace. This paper, however, contests that notion by arguing that hunting advocates feminized recreational hunting as part of a turn-of-the-century project to reform the sport’s public image. In the closing decades of the nineteenth century sport hunting appeared doomed both by declining wildlife populations and by widespread public criticism of hunters and their methods. Responding to these challenges, outdoor writers spotlighted female hunters and linked their feminine qualities to recreational hunting, thus providing the most visible marker of difference between legitimate field sports and the other forms of wildlife killing that sportsmen wanted to prohibit. Simply put, the “Modern Diana” made hunting a sport.


Andrea Smalley is an instructor in the history department at Northern Illinois University where she completed her Ph.D. in 2005. Her doctoral dissertation, entitled “The Liberty of Killing a Deer,” considers a broad range of human-wildlife interactions and examines conflicts over wildlife use in early America. She also has studied women’s participation in sport hunting from the late nineteenth century to the 1970s, and her articles on this topic have appeared in Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era and in Gender and History. Currently she is developing a book project designed to bring together her research on wildlife use in the colonial and early national periods with her previous work on sport hunting and gender.

PUBLICATION: Title IX

"In celebration of the 35th anniversary of Title IX in June 2007, the Women’s Sports Foundation released Who’s Playing College Sports?, the first of two reports marking the progress of gender equity in intercollegiate sports participation. Conducted by Dr. John Cheslock from the Center for the Study of Higher Education at the University of Arizona, these reports come at an important time as Title IX continues to be criticized by those who feel that women are gaining participation opportunities at the expense of their male counterparts.

The second report, Money, Race, and Gender, is now available. It examines the factors influencing collegiate participation changes, with a special focus on Title IX, spending on men’s basketball and football, and changing preferences for less prominent men’s sports. Also included in the report is how the racial and ethnic composition of intercollegiate athletes has changed over time, including the overall change in the racial composition of NCAA athletes regarding the diversity within individual sports and the size of individual sports."

10.30-5:00pm

This is a reminder for ‘Historians on Sport’, which has run each year from 2001. As usual it features distinguished scholars, who do not work directly on sport but have a serious interest in its historical development. The aim is to stimulate new ways of thinking about sport both in terms of method and topic. This year we have a full morning session on the history of sporting image, style and representation (Nead, Boddy and Breward) whilst the afternoon looks at religion, imperialism and radio (McLeod, Darbon and Williams). Lynda Nead and Christopher Breward come from the world of the visual arts while Kasia Boddy’s recent history of boxing grew out of her work on American literature. Hugh McLeod recent gave an invited series of lectures on sport and religion in nineteenth century Britain at Cambridge whilst Sebastien Darbon, an anthropologist, has recently published a major work in French on British imperialism and sport. Finally, we also include a sports history specialist, Jack Williams, who has been working recently on cricket and the BBC between the wars. Papers are for 30 minutes with 15 minutes for questions plus a general discussion at the end of the day.

Speakers include:

Prof. Lynda Nead, Dept of the History of Art, Birkbeck College, University of London, ‘Ringcraft: under the spell of boxing’
