Sport is everywhere in social life, yet for decades it remained marginal in Geography. Early works were mostly descriptive, while only from the 1990s onward did scholars such as John Bale and Gilmar Mascarenhas begin to treat sport as an analytical object. Even today, its full recognition as a legitimate field of geographic inquiry is still emerging. These seminars seek to advance a critical geography of sport. We present contributions that use geographic categories rigorously to analyze sport as a spatial, territorial, scalar, and identity-based phenomenon.
