Research on the run: moving methods and the charity “thon”

chapter
posted on 2023-05-24, 05:03 authored by Palmer, C
As a growing body of research is attuned to, much of the sociology of sport and related fields such as physical cultural studies is given over to studying active and inactive bodies; that is, to understanding, analyzing and problematising bodies that move in ways that challenge and contest the dominant, taken-forgranted orthodoxies within which movement and embodiment are more typically thought about (Hanold 2010; Francombe, 2013; Markula, 2015). This shared quest to treat human movement as a critical scholarly endeavor has given rise to new methodological and theoretical traditions, notably an interest in embodiment and in more engaged methods such as auto-ethnography and the use of visual techniques to capture aspects of the social and sporting worlds under study.
