ABSTRACT Regardless of one’s perspective on the relationship between paid work, leisure, and social order, it is widely accepted that paid work is a central activity in light of which one may examine this linkage. There are rare cases in which the freedom associated with leisure choices explicitly challenges the existing social order and the values on which it is founded. Types of leisure that are not in harmony with the core values of society have been discussed under the conceptual category of deviant leisure. Inspired by previous work on leisure and the social order, as well as by some observations on Israeli society during the pandemic, this paper offers some reflections on the possible theoretical contribution of the concept of deviant leisure to the study of the interconnection between work, leisure, and the social order.

ABSTRACT This study explores lived experiences of southeastern American women craft brew professionals with regards to anger and emotional labour within the craft beer industry. Informed by feminist epistemology, semi-structured interviews were conducted to understand the emotional labour of female craft beer professionals resulting in a dynamic and innovative arts-based analysis. Participants discussed their love of the industry and provided insights into unforeseen issues of motherhood, safety, and sexual violence. The motivations behind the leisure pursuits of brewing were complex, which lead to actively engaging in both outward anger and coping strategies resulting in three overarching stanzas, (1) anger as a catalyst, (2) the bridge, and (3) coping mechanisms. Highlighting and giving a platform for women in the craft beer industry to share their narratives, this study creates a dialogue around the complexities and struggles women endure by shedding light on the emotional labour experiences and their ongoing struggles.

ABSTRACT There is a dearth of focus on the conditions that cause people to terminate participation in their formerly meaningful leisure activities. What is missing is an understanding of the psychological process that takes place when a leisure activity becomes less meaningful over time, yet participation is not immediately abandoned. What are the reasons people maintain involvement in an activity when it is no longer enjoyable? One explanation is the sunk cost effect. This critical commentary explores the conceptual application of the sunk cost effect to understanding the potential for decreasing commitment levels to a leisure activity, as demonstrated through the framework of enuring involvement.

By most accounts in popular press and in academic journals, we are in crisis. Regardless of the geographical scale in question, there are pressing social crises concerning soaring rates of wealth inequality, racial injustices, institutional corruption, educational inequities, displacement of Indigenous peoples, social isolation, and political instability, to name a few examples. Further, by nearly any sober account, we are in the midst of an ecological crisis as well. While climate change is the overarching behemoth that encompasses most of these concerns, there are more specific worries associated with species loss, desertification, overfishing, topsoil despoliation, paradoxical drought and flooding, agricultural monocultures, ocean acidification, and many others. Most assessments are that we have passed a ‘point of no return’ in our warming climate, as we have already exceeded many of the supposed tipping points (polar sea ice loss, melting of Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, tundra methane release, etc.), accelerating a disastrous feedback loop. In short, assessing our social and environmental world often paints a grim picture. What, then, are we to do? The weight of these contemporary social and environmental concerns are so totalizing that they regularly feel overwhelming, if not paralyzing (Robbins and Moore 2013). We see them, we consider them, and often, we move on, hoping that others undertake the significant work to address them. Because, after all, these problems are just too much to take on. This collective feeling of anxiety and inadequacy in the face of insurmountable problems seems to have gripped our contemporary culture (Remes et al. 2016), and an unevenly experienced global pandemic has only worsened this condition (Salari et al. 2020). In this essay, I make the case that a critical political economy approach can address not only the crises at hand, but also these feelings of inadequacy, paralysis, and complacency that all too often accompany the facing of crises. A critical political economy approach places the structure of the economy and sets of power-laden relationships as primary drivers of these socioenvironmental phenomena that mark our crises. I address these pressing, materialist concerns through a critical philosophy of leisure, of all things. I make that case that our neoliberal political economy masks and obfuscates the social and environmental exploitation at the heart of capitalism, a system that has an explicit goal to ‘rob us of our capacity to recognize that we are in crisis’ (Stewart 2021, 263). Understanding leisure, and a recentering and perhaps a reconceptualization of the good life, is one necessary and materialist confrontation that we can and should make.
根据大众媒体和学术期刊的大多数报道，我们正处于危机之中。无论地理范围如何，都存在一些紧迫的社会危机，如财富不平等加剧、种族不公正、机构腐败、教育不平等、土著人民流离失所、社会孤立和政治不稳定等。此外，从几乎任何清醒的角度来看，我们也处于一场生态危机之中。虽然气候变化是一个包管一切的庞然大物，包含了大多数这些担忧，但还有更多具体的担忧与物种丧失、荒漠化、过度捕捞、表土掠夺、矛盾的干旱和洪水、农业单一栽培、海洋酸化等有关。大多数评估认为，我们已经越过了气候变暖的“不归路”，因为我们已经超过了许多假定的临界点(极地海冰损失、格陵兰岛和南极冰盖融化、冻土带甲烷释放等)，加速了灾难性的反馈循环。简而言之，评估我们的社会和环境世界往往描绘出一幅严峻的画面。那么，我们该怎么办呢?这些当代社会和环境问题的重要性是如此的全面，以至于它们经常让人感到势不可挡，如果不是瘫痪的话(罗宾斯和摩尔，2013)。我们看到它们，我们考虑它们，我们常常继续前进，希望其他人承担重要的工作来解决它们。因为，毕竟，这些问题太多了，无法承担。面对无法克服的问题，这种焦虑和不足的集体感觉似乎已经笼罩了我们的当代文化(Remes et al. 2016)，而一场经历不均匀的全球大流行只会加剧这种情况(Salari et al. 2020)。在这篇文章中，我提出了一种批判性的政治经济学方法，它不仅可以解决手头的危机，还可以解决在面对危机时经常出现的不足感、麻痹感和自满感。一种批判性的政治经济学方法将经济结构和一系列充满权力的关系视为这些社会环境现象的主要驱动力，这些现象标志着我们的危机。我通过对闲暇和所有事物的批判哲学来解决这些紧迫的唯物主义问题。我认为，我们的新自由主义政治经济掩盖和模糊了资本主义核心的社会和环境剥削，这个制度的明确目标是“剥夺我们认识到我们处于危机中的能力”(Stewart 2021, 263)。对休闲的理解，以及对美好生活的重新认识，或许是对美好生活的重新概念化，是一种必要的、唯物主义的对抗，我们可以也应该这样做。

Abstract The nightlife sector means the economy and culture but also social wellbeing. However, whenever nightlife does get discussed, it seems always to be about licensing, regulation, crime, culture-led strategies of urban regeneration and urban benchmarking, and we still lack an appropriate understanding about the benefits of night culture beyond these topics. In this critical commentary, I wish to comment on the potential of nightlife as an efficient time–space mechanism for social well-being, community-building and multicultural understanding and even psychological mutual support especially after the Covid-19 pandemic amidst the newly emerging and still undefined world.

ABSTRACT Emotions provoke change, yet are often discredited at best and demonized at worst in modernity and positivism. We currently face a global climate crisis – one so dangerous that biocultural diversity is at risk of permanent extinction. The reality we now face in the Anthropocene warrants anger. Yet, female-identifying activists, educators, scientists, philosophers, community leaders, and beyond face a litany of macro and microaggressions publicly when they speak out for systemic economic, political, social and scientific change. Anger from women is habitually and publicly discredited and mocked, whereas anger against women is consistently accepted and validated. Tourism is a system that is based on the late-capitalist paradigm of valuating and profiting from the exploitation of biocultural diversity and social inequities in its current market-based, growth-focused structure. This paper explores the intersectionality of anger, climate change and tourism from the perspective of the misogyny of late capitalism.

ABSTRACT Although identified in the definition of leisure constraints, leisure enjoyment has been rarely studied as an outcome of constraints and constraint negotiation. The purpose of this paper is, therefore, to examine the associations among leisure constraints, constraint negotiation, and enjoyment, within the context of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA). Cross-sectional online survey data from 618 Japanese and Euro-Canadian adults were used. Regression results suggested that across different levels of LTPA, enjoyment was negatively associated with constraints and positively with constraint negotiation. Follow-up regression analyses at sub-category level identified specific types of leisure constraints and negotiation strategies particularly pertinent to enjoyment. We conclude that leisure enjoyment is a direct outcome of constraints and constraint negotiation, which supports the call to extend the leisure constraints theory beyond participation as the outcome. Moreover, we suggest that facilitating leisure enjoyment requires awareness of different types of constraints and negotiation strategies depending on activity contexts.

ABSTRACT This article explores the uniquely Australian leisure activity of calisthenics. The term ‘calisthenics’ has multiple applications; initially, it described a variety of exercise prescribed for physical and mental health. Australian calisthenics defies easy definition, representing a confluence of sport, music and dance; it is a highly structured competitive activity, affording the opportunity for a study of bodies, spaces and places. Individuals’ movements are nestled within the framework of the team, and the synchronous corporeality that is a feature of each calisthenics discipline serves as a stimulus for spatial awareness and the construction of a shared physicality. Calisthenics provides an ideal exemplar of various kinds of leisure work, including somatic, emotional, cultural and community-building labour. Competitions underpin the activity, producing aesthetic strictures and perpetuating the requirement for considerable economic investment. Thus, the article represents a multi-faceted analysis of an important aspect of Australia’s leisure and social histories.

ABSTRACT In outdoor rock climbing, the first person who successfully ascends and sets up a route – the first ascensionist – chooses a name for it. Some first ascensionists issue discriminatory route names. This article explores how one group of climbing women negotiates misogynistic route names. I qualitatively analyse seventeen, individual, semi-structured interviews and four focus group interviews, and six themes emerge: frustration, helplessness, exclusion, internalized sexism, pushback, and intersection of sexism and settler colonialism. Adopting an intersectional feminist approach, I argue that the politics of naming routes cannot be divorced from a settler-colonial logic that has long used (re)naming land as a strategy for nation-building. I suggest incorporating decolonial theories into outdoor rock climbing to create more inclusive leisure environments.
