Physical Education Futures - Routledge Studies in Physical Education and Youth Sport
Kirk, David (University of Strathclyde, UK)
This book traces the dominant shift over the last century from an idea of physical education-as-gymnastics to an idea of physical education-as-sport-techniques, and outlines the contemporary processes of commodification and commercialisation of physical culture and academicization of teaching that have already begun to make this emphasis on sport-related skills problematic.
