Globalizing Boxing
This book uses boxing as a vehicle for exploring social, cultural and political change in a global context. It considers to what degree and in what ways boxing reflects social transformations, and how it contributes to those transformations. Woodward provides new ways of thinking critically about our everyday assumptions and social world.
