亚文化和反文化长期以来一直是该学科的主要概念,其历史可以追溯到 20 世纪 20 年代和 1930 年代开创性的芝加哥社会学派的工作。这些术语最初是为了指定和描述较大社会社区中较小的、通常是越轨或犯罪的群体而使用的,在二十世纪中叶的犯罪学研究中,特别是随着英国文化研究在 20 世纪 70 年代的发展,它们被广泛用于描述基于社会阶级的反对、抵抗和抗议的过程。最近,社会学家在解释围绕特定价值观、行为或偏好联合起来的子社区的行为时,已经超越了严格的从众抵抗模型。事实上,当代社会学研究提出了这样一种可能性,即亚文化这个术语可能已经完全不再有用。尽管“反主流文化”一词也日渐衰落,但毫无疑问,这些术语历史上所指的社会群体种类比以往任何时候都更加广泛和丰富多彩。当然,体育运动中也是如此。简而言之,所有社会都充满了自己版本的部落游戏,其中包含并代表了更广泛的社会模式、过程和斗争。本书收录了 16 篇关于体育亚社区生活各个方面的读物,展示了一群代表不同理论和方法论方向的国际学者对体育亚文化研究的广度和深度。所研究的一些体育群体包括足球流氓、耐力运动员、残疾运动员、有环保意识的冲浪者和极限运动会参与者。“体育社会学研究”系列的第四卷由两位社会学家编辑,他们的学术培训、研究和教学跨越了亚文化和反文化概念被最热衷使用和严格测试的三个子学科(犯罪学/青年/体育),并且他们在体育和体育领域的亚文化冒险。社会学家的范围很广。迈克尔·阿特金森是英国拉夫堡大学体育与运动科学学院的高级讲师,凯文·杨是加拿大卡尔加里大学社会学教授。
Traceable as far back as the work of the path-breaking Chicago School of Sociology in the 1920s and 1930s, subculture and counterculture have long been conceptual staples of the discipline. Implemented originally to designate and describe smaller, often deviant or delinquent, groups within larger social communities, the terms gained pace in their use in mid-twentieth century criminological research, and especially with the development of Cultural Studies in the United Kingdom in the 1970s, where they became widely used to describe processes of social class-based opposition, resistance and protest. More recently, sociologists have moved beyond a strict conformity-resistance model in accounting for the behaviour of sub-communities that coalesce around particular values, behaviours, or preferences.Indeed, contemporary sociological research has raised the possibility that the term subculture in particular may have entirely outgrown its usefulness. While the term counterculture has also languished, there is no doubt that the sorts of social groups to which these terms have historically referred are more extensive and colourful than ever. Certainly this is the case in sport. Put simply, all societies are replete with their own versions of Tribal Play which encompass and represent wider social patterns, processes, and struggles.This volume is a collection of 16 readings on aspects of sub-community life in sport that showcases the breadth and depth of sport subcultural research by a group of international scholars representing varied theoretical and methodological orientations. Some of the sport communities examined include soccer hooligans, endurance athletes, disabled athletes, environmentally conscious surfers, and X-Games participants.This fourth volume in the "Research in the Sociology of Sport" series is edited by two sociologists whose academic training, research and teaching span three of the subdisciplines in which the concepts of subculture and counterculture have been most avidly used and critically tested (Criminology/Youth/Sport), and whose subcultural ventures both in sport and as sociologists are extensive.
