Call for Papers | “Professionalization of Sports Coaching from a Scandinavian Horizon”, Special Issue of Sport in Society | Call ends September 1, 2022
The social sciences – such as sociology, history, cultural studies, anthropology, didactics, socio-legal studies – seem to have a rather marginal position in scholarly studies of coaching, whereas behavioral sciences, and especially psychology seem to dominate coaching studies. This special issue has the ambition to challenge and widen the contemporary understanding of the coach and coaching practices, particularly in relation to social issues, influences, culture and changes, by an imperative focus on social science.
