RN28 Society and Sports
The Esa Research Network 28 ‘Society and Sports’ aims at strengthening the visibility and legitimacy of the sociology of sport within the European sociological community. As such, the Esa conference in Turin 2013 will offer, besides the regular stand alone sessions, a broad range of joint sessions in which the sociologists of sport can discuss and exchange their knowledge with colleagues from different but overlapping sociological fields (such as health, gender, emotions, globalization, consumption, and many others).Call for papers submission
Sports, physical activities and body cultures: Crisis, critique and change Far from merely having an economical dimension, the crisis which currently affects the European societies poses new political and social challenges, opening the way to many possible transformations. Established practices and institutions may crumble and die and new configurations and alliances may arise.
As highlighted in the conference theme, two processes are at work. On the one hand, a systemic transformation has driven the shift from public to private power and adapted the state to capital markets. On the other hand, there has been a proliferation of vital types of critique too. How are these dynamics reflected in the field of sports, physical activities and body cultures? How does the sphere of sport face the challenges coming from the financial crisis? What models for sport will be sustainable in the future? Are alternatives for the current sport policies necessary? To what extent are post-crisis developments in the context of sport specific when compared to the spheres of economics and politics? To what extent can be the evidence from sport transposed to other spheres of social and cultural life?
The RN-28 ‘Society and Sports’ invites papers exploring these and other questions from all areas of the sociology of sport. Possible themes include but are not limited to:
• Critical, creative and collaborative sports practices
• Sport, media and new media
• Sociological Theory and Sport: Back to the New Basics?
• Crossing boundaries through sport events: how does it work?
• Society and Sports (open session)
Joint sessions:
• Facets of participation in childhood and youth: Exploring sport participation (with RN4 “Sociology of Children and Childhood” and RN30 “Youth and Generation”)
• The commercialization of sport and fitness practices (with RN5 “Sociology of Consumption”)
• Sports and culture: participation alike? (with RN7 “Sociology of Culture”)
• Sport and religion/spirituality (with RN7 “Sociology of Culture” and RN34 “Sociology of Religion”)
• Sport and emotions (with RN11 “Sociology of Emotions”)
• Processes of Objectification and Reflexivity in Qualitative Body and Sport Research (with RN11 “Sociology of Emotions” and RN20 “Qualitative methods”)

Muito bem Laércio,
Como estou virando contador de histórias (será que todos os velhinhos também o são?) seu excelente registro veio a calhar!
Estive em meados de novembro p.p. em Saquarema, no Centro de Treinamento da CBV divulgando o meu trabalho de 1.047 páginas dividido em 2 volumes sobre a História do Voleibol no Brasil no séc. XX (retroajo a 1939). Foi durante o torneio master com centenas de praticantes de vários estados.
Um deles, professor de Cinesiologia de universidade do interior de São Paulo, interessou-se pela obra e resolveu adquiri-la. Indaguei qual seria a sua principal motivação e eis que me surpreendi pela resposta: "Vou presentear um amigo que está cursando um doutorado em Sociologia". E concluiu: " Este livro vai ser de muita valia para a sua tese".
Ganhei o dia e vibrei com todo o meu trabalho de mais de 20 anos de pesquisas. Obrigado ilustre professor por sua sensibilidade e desprendimento. Foi o maior elogio que já recebi.
