TAILIEUCHUNG - Sport, Professionalism and Pain: Ethnographies of injury and risk

This book is an anthropological study of the impact of commercialism on the professionalisation of sports medicine. In particular, it examines how the embodied practice of sport in a professional environment places stress on elite sporting participants. These individuals have better medical provisions than were available to the competitors of yesteryear. But they come at a price. The book investigates the relationship between commercialism, medicine and the body, in order to establish the importance of pain, injury and risk in the contemporary sporting world | t ETHICS AND SPORT sport professionalism and pain ethnographies of injury and risk p. David Howe Also available as a printed book see title verso for ISBN details Sport Professionalism and Pain Ethnographies of injury and risk Sport Professionalism and Pain considers these and other pertinent concerns as it questions whether in the world of modem sport it is the participants themselves or the sport s administrators who exert more control over athletes well-being. It is asserted that because of the distinctive nature of sport the power to transform medical practice and application of sports medicine lies not with physicians but within the practices of sport itself. Sport Professionalism and Pain bridges a perceived space in the literature between medical anthropology medical sociology and sport studies examining issues such as the relationship between sports medicine the body and culture the power struggle between sport administrators and participants the historical transformation of sports medicine. Howe is a Senior Lecturer in the Anthropology of Sport in the School of Sport and Leisure at the University of Gloucestershire.
