Associations with class, hegemonic masculinity and racialized inclusions/exclusions, however, sit alongside developments such as women's boxing and involvement in Mixed Martial Arts.This book will be the first to use boxing as a vehicle for exploring social, cultural and political change in a global context. It will consider to what degree and in what ways boxing reflects social transformations, and whether and how it contributes to those transformations. In exploring the relationship it will provide new ways of thinking critically about the everyday. 410 0$aGlobalizing Sport Studies 606 $aBoxing 615 0$aBoxing. 676 $a306.483 700 $aWoodward$b Kath$0315558 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910597158603321 996 $aGlobalizing Boxing$91804101 997 $aUNINA
