CFP: Special edition of Sport in Society: ‘Sex Integration in Sport and Physical Culture’
CFP for special edition of Sport in Society: ‘Sex Integration in Sport and Physical Culture’
Guest editors: Dr Alex Channon, Dr Thomas Fletcher, Dr Katherine Dashper and Dr Robert J. Lake
Over the past decade, scholars of sport and gender have begun to pay attention to the phenomenon of sex integration in sports and related physical cultural activities, exploring mixed-sex/co-ed classes, teams and competitions across a variety of contexts. This research has identified a number of moments in which normative conceptions of sex difference might be challenged and/or reaffirmed in such environments. While these works have been diverse in their empirical foci and theoretical frameworks, a key question nevertheless emerges from within them: how might mixed-sex/co-ed sports activities uniquely contribute toward either the amelioration, or perpetuation, of sexual hierarchies and the inequality these involve?
While a handful of papers have directly explored this key issue via in-depth contemporary or historical case studies of specific, mixed-sex sport and physical cultural settings, as well as some which have examined the legal and political implications of sex integration, this phenomenon remains significantly under-researched in comparison to the vast body of published literature dealing with sex, gender and sport more generally. This special edition of Sport in Society therefore aims to highlight contemporary research into sex integration in sport and physical culture, with a view to better establishing this phenomenon as a focal point of future efforts in the study of sport and gender.
While we are looking for papers which make an explicit contribution towards the central theoretical issue outlined above (i.e., mixed-sex activities’ relation to sexual hierarchy/inequity), we are open to papers featuring empirical research on a range of topics, such as:
The lived experience of participants in a variety of mixed-sex/co-ed sports, including among traditionally segregated (e.g., team games) or integrated (e.g., dance) activities;
Problems facing coaches, teachers, and other professionals (e.g., sport psychologists, medics, etc.) in mixed-sex settings;
Legal issues, ethical debates and policy implications surrounding mixed-sex/co-ed sport;
Media representation and discussion, and audience reception, of mixed-sex activities;
The influence of religion in mixed-sex/co-ed settings;
Gender issues with respect to mixed-sex/co-ed sports in schools, colleges, universities and other educational settings;
Issues related to talent development in mixed-sex/co-ed sport settings;
Economic issues related to the funding of mixed-sex/co-ed sports practices;
The politics of exclusion in mixed-sex/co-ed sport settings.
We are keen to receive contributions based on original empirical research from colleagues working within fields including sociology, pedagogy, policy studies, history, sports development, media studies, and related disciplines. For further details, please contact any of the editorial team: Alex Channon (a.g.channon@gre.ac.uk); Thomas Fletcher (t.e.fletcher@leedsmet.ac.uk); Katherine Dashper (k.dashper@leedsmet.ac.uk); or Robert J. Lake (rlake@wlu.ca).
Deadline for 250-word abstracts: 1st June 2014 (decision on acceptance by 1st July 2014)

CFP: Visioning and Re-visioning Hockey’s ‘Arena.’
Visioning and Re-visioning Hockey’s ‘Arena.’
An International Scholarly Conference at Western University in London, Canada 18-20 June 2014
Ice hockey has many ‘arenas,’ literal and figurative ones. The intent of this conference is to assemble hockey aficionados to explore meanings, experiences, insights, issues, stories, studies, cultural nuances, and contextualizations about the ‘arenas’ that contain, surround, and pervade ice hockey at all of its levels from participation to spectatorship to commodification to its darker underbelly. The conference organizing committee is open to receiving abstracts that relate to this broad theme.
You may submit an abstract of no more than 250 words; please include all authors, contact author and her/his full contact information. The abstract should include a precise statement of the argument and conclusions, the evidence and/or resources to be used, and what significance the paper has to our understanding of hockey’s arena. All accepted presentations carry the inherent expectation that the author(s) will be in attendance at the conference to present the paper and all presenters must register in full in order to present the paper. All sessions will be held on the campus of Western University. Abstracts will be accepted until March 25, 2014 with acceptance decisions by April 15, 2014. Please email us your abstract in PDF, Word, RTF, or text format to conference@
In keeping with the traditions established at the past iterations of The Hockey Conference, a game of shinny (on ice) will be staged on Thursday, June 19. Please bring your own skates. Sticks will be supplied if needed.

FOR A PUBLIC SOCIOLOGY OF SPORT IN THE AMERICAS: ACCOMPLISHMENTS, CHALLENGES, AND EMERGING AGENDAS
Call for Papers
If Michael Burawoy is accurate when he suggests that civil society is currently under threat from the pervasive interests of the market and the state, there is perhaps no other domain of social life in which this can be so clearly evidenced than that of sport. In spite of numerous efforts to consolidate access to sport and physical activity as a human right, sport policies and programs tend to be among the very first to undergo cuts at times of fiscal austerity. All over the Americas – and most notably in North America – the rise of neoliberal agendas has triggered an unparalleled commodification of the pathways and spaces to engage in sport and physical activity, while at the same time significantly eroding the capacity of states to deliver opportunities for sport participation. It thus comes as no surprise that, despite some fundamental disagreements, most of the different branches of critical scholarship within North American sociology of sport have found common ground in the charge against neoliberalism. These concerns have been articulated in both theoretical and practical terms – and it is the latter that is of special interest.
Yet, if there is to be a robust public sociology of sport, it needs to be anchored in the assumption that the struggles of civil society may take different shapes in response to the distinct oppressing conditions encountered in each social landscape. Whereas the threat of privatization remains widespread throughout most capitalist societies, in some countries of the global south – such as Brazil, Ecuador, Argentina, and Bolivia – sport participation policies have experienced an unprecedented allocation of resources in recent years. It is still unclear, however, whether these policies represent an effective challenge to the hegemonic values pervading mainstream sports monoculture – or, on the contrary, help to reproduce them.
As part of the 20th anniversary celebrations for the Movimento Journal and inspired by the first ten years of Burawoy’s landmark call for a public sociology, this special issue seeks to explore how scholars of sport situated all over the world – and especially in the Americas – have navigated some of the challenges presented above, engaged with their respective “publics,” and taken a stand on behalf of civil society. Submissions are encouraged on, but not limited to, the following themes:
• The role of sociologists of sport as public intellectuals, their engagement with traditional “publics,” and the possibilities of intervention in the mainstream media;
• The emergence of new media and the opportunities they provide for the establishment of new “publics;”
• The organic engagement of sociologists of sport with representatives of civil society, such as labour unions, non-governmental organizations, sport for development programmes, etc.;
• The challenges and opportunities surrounding open-access knowledge, the proliferation of open-access journals, and the difficulties embedded in the process of knowledge translation;
• The impacts of expenditure cuts on opportunities for sport participation and sport policies within neoliberal settings;
• The increasing privatization, corporatization and commercialization of physical culture, and the emergence of counter-hegemonic alternatives;
• The evaluation and critique of sport policies and programmes in developing countries.
Submissions are accepted in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Papers must have 4,000 – 6,000 words (inclusive of endnotes and reference list) and should follow the formatting guidelines available at http://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/Movimento/about/submissions. The deadline for submissions is May 31, 2014. Original manuscripts should be submitted online at http://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/Movimento/index. Please direct any inquiries to Guilherme
