This special issue of the Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics is designed to move our understandings of the experience college athletes have in their educational pursuits through a grounding in educational theory associated with academic engagement and success. It is unique from the extant research because it is intended to encourage scholarship that focuses on ways to increase participation in these activities.

Contributors may come from any social or human science discipline, including sport management, marketing, sport policy, sociology, sport psychology, sport economics... Robust qualitative, quantitative and mixed method research approaches that would focus on the societal impact of elite sport are welcome. We are looking for studies that advance theory and knowledge on the understanding of societal impact of elite sport.

Consistent with the aims and objectives of JIA, this special Issue intends to seek contributions that critically examine, debate, and shed light on new perspectives in digital and interactive marketing communications in sports. We are especially interested in theoretical, empirical, and critical analyses focusing on a wide spectrum of issues regarding interactive communication issues in sports.

How did Nietzsche view the sporting culture of the 19th century? How would he view our sporting culture today? This issue of The Agonist is dedicated to examining these and other sport related themes in Nietzsche and post-Nietzschean literature, including authors, thinkers, sport philosophers and movements influenced by his ideas.

This special issue will blend historical analyses with sociology, political studies and media & communications studies to develop knowledge on the role of sport in fostering and augmenting transnational relations and exchanges. Research could incorporate, at its core, analyses of race (including ethnicity and indigeneity), gender and class relations over time, and highlight the growing importance of sport in the making of identity politics.

Olympika: International Journal of Olympic Studies invites graduate students to write a journal article review for our next issue (Volume 28, 2019). The Journal Article Review section of the publication offers a platform for graduate students to engage in scholarly discourse on Olympic issues while also providing an opportunity to enhance their CV with a written review credit.

This special issue invites articles that explore how outdoor experiences have been and are shaped in particular ways and to what effects. Moreover, the issue takes particular interest in how dominant discourses can be challenged and reshaped in order to make outdoor experiences available and accessible to, and enjoyed by, diverse people and in diverse ways.

The purpose of this special issue is to illustrate projects embracing concepts of diversity, equity, and infusion of multiple intersecting identity experiences of sport, performance, and exercise science populations. The special issue will allow for a more harmonious sport science set-up with collaborations fostering acceptance and inclusion to promote global cultural progress.

This special issue asks authors to position their articles to advocate for either the federal or the state regulation of sports wagering in the future by focusing on specific aspects that state governments or the federal government may be more efficient at. Alternatively, authors may seek to explore why it is beneficial for states to determine which events can be wagered upon.

The economic downturn and subsequent government policy reactions is arguably one of the biggest challenges facing sport and our discipline. We encourage papers that address the issue, including those from a comparative perspective, in order to illuminate the similarities and differences in sport management in its global context. Moreover, we hope to attract new theoretical findings.
