Call for Papers | “Critical Approaches to Youth Development through Sport”, Special Issue of Youth | Call ends February 15, 2025
We are expecting submissions that counter the idea that positive development occurs simply through sport programs providing spaces where youth who have been othered can temporarily avoid the environments that place them at a disadvantage, or “stay out of trouble.” And we seek work that enacts discourse and informs theory to examine the problematic focus on the individual navigation of discriminatory systems as developmental. We encourage submissions that not only challenge the field to examine the sociopolitical environment youth inhabit, but also demonstrate how scholars can engage in the transformation of the field.
