Bøger i Qualitative Research in Sport and Physical Activity serien

This book offers a brief history of how autoethnography has been employed in studies of sport and physical (in)activity to date and makes an explicit call for anti-colonial approaches - challenging scholars of physical culture to interrogate and write against the colonial assumptions at work in so many physical cultural and academic spaces.

Reflective chapters focusing on the how-to and the challenges of this practice complete the work, to support scholars in developing their creative skills.
