"Analyzing sport through the lens of performance and theorizing performance through the lens of sport, 'Sport and Performance in the Twenty-First Century' offers a field intervention, a series of in-depth performance analyses, and an investigation of the intersection betweeN sport performances and public life in the historical present in the global north. The objectives of this book are three-fold.
