Conference theme: Global im/mobilities – Sport and the politics of global social justice and solidarity
Abstracts are invited – either for individual submissions or for complete panels (3/4 papers) – for papers that address aspects of race, ethnicity and migration in relation to all aspects of sport and physical culture. Theoretical or empirical presentations are welcomed, while contributions may draw on contemporary or historical perspectives.
In line with the conference theme, papers that address critical current global issues – including #blacklivesmatter and the refugee crisis – are especially encouraged.
Abstracts should be c.150 words (plus a covering description where a complete panel is proposed) and sent to sreconference2016@brighton.ac.uk by 31 January 2016.
