  • The history and cultural impact of sports
  • Representations of sports in popular culture and media
  • How personal and social identities are manifest in sports
  • Sports and body image
  • Sports as an arena of social, political, and cultural struggle
  • The economic impact of sports

Creative projects, fiction, and memoir are considered only insofar as they are part of broader analytical frameworks.
