But is the story of surfing really as simple as popular culture suggests? In this first international political history of the sport, Scott Laderman shows that while wave riding is indeed capable of stimulating tremendous pleasure, its globalization went hand in hand with the blood and repression of the long twentieth century.   Emerging as an imperial instrument in post-annexation Hawaii, spawning a form of tourism that conquered the littoral Third World, tracing the struggle against South African apartheid, and employed as a diplomatic weapon in America's Cold War arsenal, the saga of modern surfing is only partially captured by Gidget, the Beach Boys, and the film Blue Crush. From nineteenth-century American empire-building in the Pacific to the low-wage labor of the surf industry today, Laderman argues that surfing in fact closely mirrored American foreign relations. Yet despite its less-than-golden past, the sport continues to captivate people worldwide. Whether in El Salvador or Indonesia or points between, the modern history of this cherished pastime is hardly an uncomplicated story of beachside bliss. Sometimes messy, occasionally contentious, but never dull, surfing offers us a whole new way of viewing our globalized world. 410 0$aSport in World History 606 $aSurfing$xHistory 606 $aSurfing$xPolitical aspects 610 $aamerican foreign relations. 610 $aamerican imperialism. 610 $aapartheid. 610 $aathletes. 610 $abeaches. 610 $ablue crush. 610 $acold war. 610 $acommodification. 610 $adiplomacy. 610 $aempire. 610 $agidget. 610 $aglobalization. 610 $ahawaii. 610 $ahistory of surfing. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aimperialism. 610 $aindividual sports. 610 $aindonesia. 610 $aindustrial surfing. 610 $ainternational politics. 610 $along 20th century. 610 $alow wage labor. 610 $amodern surf culture. 610 $aocean. 610 $apolitical history of surfing. 610 $apolitics. 610 $arepression. 610 $asouth africa. 610 $asports. 610 $asurfing today. 610 $asurfing. 610 $athe beach boys. 610 $atourism. 610 $aunited states of america. 610 $awave riding. 610 $awaves. 615 0$aSurfing$xHistory. 615 0$aSurfing$xPolitical aspects. 676 $a797.3/2 700 $aLaderman$b Scott$f1971-$01487664 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790708003321 996 $aEmpire in waves$93707630 997 $aUNINA
