With no competing works in the field, this seminal reference text focuses on what has become a large subdiscipline within the fields of sociology and sport studies. The timely and comprehensive collection draws upon anthropology, cultural studies, education, history, human geography, media studies, political science and social policy to capture the theoretical, substantive and transnational diversity of the sociology of sport. A mixture of classic papers and contemporary issues and debates, this major work examines the range of theoretical standpoints that have been used to explain sport; social conflicts and divisions within the field; cultural identities and social sites; and, the diverse influence of globalization processes upon sport. Volume One: Core Theories and Perspectives on SportVolume Two: Social Divisions and Conflicts in SportVolume Three: Social Identities and Sites of SportVolume Four: Sport and Globalization

This new major work on sport and leisure management takes a wide and holistic view of the topic, conceptualising sport and leisure management as an area of study that is underpinned by a range of social science disciplines, including, but not limited to, political science, economics, sociology, psychology, geography and, of course, management. Over four volumes, Editor Mike Weed has carefully selected and compiled articles covering the key aspects of the subject, including context, supply, demand and management. In order to enhance the coherence of the collection, each volume is framed by a contextualising introductory chapter, with a larger primary introduction in Volume I tying the concept of the collection neatly together. Volume One: Dimensions of Sport and Leisure ManagementVolume Two: The Mixed Economy of Sport and Leisure ProvisionVolume Three: Sport and Leisure ConsumptionVolume Four: Managing Sport and Leisure Operations

Even though Tourism forms a vibrant and dynamic field of study, the history and development of it remains uncharted in any significant manner. The subject developed in response to a growing interest and recognition of the potential value of tourism to the economy, society and culture, as well as environmental regeneration. In part, the evolution of the subject has arisen from the development of a critical interest among social scientists and more latterly business researchers. There are no benchmarks on which scholars, researchers and public sector agencies can gauge where the subject came from, what it has achieved, where it is going, and what it means for the public sector in establishing adequate planning and control measures.This major reference collection, Tourism, not only brings together the seminal studies and articles that have shaped thinking in the Tourism area, but the structure of the collection also synthesises, organises and logically analyses a large number of issues to guide users through the manifold branches of this field.
