SPORTS / AFRICAN STUDIES “A long overdue project by scholars committed to building African sports studies as a humanities subject. Scholars of social history, nationalism, popular culture, social anthropology, media, and cultural studies will appreciate this book.” —Sean Jacobs, author of Media in Postapartheid South Africa: Postcolonial Politics in the Age of Globalization “Sports in Africa heralds the arrival in sports studies of an empirically rich, theoretically informed, methodologically rigorous, and incisive African-focused genre. The volume ... challenges longstanding racial, ethnic, and cultural stereotypes pertaining to Africans and dispenses with any notion of fixed and prescribed social and cultural identities.” — Douglas Booth, dean, Faculty of Adventure, Culinary Arts, and Tourism, Thompson Rivers University “A go-to volume for those seeking a solid introduction to the politics, poetics, and practices of the fascinating life-worlds of sports in Africa.” — Glen Thompson, research fellow, Stellenbosch University These groundbreaking essays demonstrate how Africans past and present have utilized sports to forge complex identities and shape Africa’s dynamic place in the world. Since the late nineteenth century, modern sports in Africa have both reflected and shaped cultural, social, political, economic, generational, and gender relations on the continent. Although the colonial powers originally introduced European sports as a means of “civilizing” indigenous populations and upholding colonizers’ notions of racial hierarchies and “muscular Christianity,” Africans
quickly appropriated these sporting practices to fulfill their own varied interests. This collection encompasses a wide range of topics, including women footballers in Nigeria, Kenya’s world-class long distance runners, pitches and stadiums in communities large and small, fandom and pay-to-watch kiosks, the sporting diaspora, sports pedagogy, sports as resistance and as a means to forge identity, sports heritage, the impact of politics on sports, and sporting biography. TODD CLEVELAND is an associate professor of history at the University of Arkansas. His most recent book is A History of Tourism in Africa: Exoticization, Exploitation, and Enrichment (Ohio University Press, 2020). kaur is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Department of Anthropology, University of Johannesburg.
