In this article, we study social status associated with sport. First, we examine the extent to which sport gives social status to Norwegian youths and athletes, how sport does so compared to other status markers and how sport and other various status markers vary by age, gender and cultural class. Second, we study how sport performances influence social status (popularity and likeability) among athletes. We hypothesise that (i) sport has a high status in general and especially among sport participants, (ii) sport loses attraction by age, but less so among sport participants than the general youth population, (iii) sport gives more status to boys than girls and (iv) sport performances influence athletes’ popularity and likability. We use data from the nationally representative Ungdata project of 2015 ( N = 22,856, response rate 70%) and a study conducted by the authors on young athletes participating in organised sport ( N = 387, response rate 74%). The results show that sport has a high status, especially among young sporting males. Cultural class seems less important for sport status. For status within the context of sports, the best-performing athletes are the most popular and best liked athletes. The findings are discussed with regard to recruitment, continuation and dropout from sports.

在这篇文章中，我们研究与体育有关的社会地位。首先，我们研究了体育在多大程度上赋予挪威青年和运动员社会地位，与其他地位标志相比，体育是如何做到这一点的，以及体育和其他各种地位标志是如何因年龄、性别和文化阶层而变化的。其次，我们研究运动表现如何影响运动员的社会地位(受欢迎程度和受欢迎程度)。我们假设:(i)体育在一般情况下具有很高的地位，特别是在体育参与者中;(ii)体育随着年龄的增长而失去吸引力，但在体育参与者中，吸引力不如一般青年人口;(iii)体育给予男孩比女孩更多的地位;(iv)体育表现影响运动员的受欢迎程度和受欢迎程度。我们使用的数据来自2015年全国代表性的Ungdata项目(N = 22,856，回复率70%)和作者对参加有组织体育运动的年轻运动员进行的研究(N = 387，回复率74%)。结果表明，体育具有很高的地位，尤其是在年轻的体育男性中。文化阶层似乎对体育地位不那么重要。在体育运动的背景下，表现最好的运动员是最受欢迎和最受欢迎的运动员。调查结果讨论了有关招收，继续和退出体育。

The field of sport, exercise, and physical education studies continues to utilize and strives to enhance rigor in qualitative approaches. We build upon this work by narrowing a focus to appropriately applying rigorous discourse analysis (DA). Though variations of DA have been increasingly incorporated into sport, exercise, and physical education studies, a comprehensive overview specifically covering which methods underpin DA and which analytical strategies are adopted is missing. Therefore, we conducted a structured scoping review by identifying 1810 papers from journal and database searches from 2000 to April 2022, then narrowed the sample to 560 papers that specifically conducted a DA. The review focuses on studies and practices within Foucauldian Discourse Analysis, Critical Discourse Analysis, and Discursive Psychology. By adopting a problematizing approach, we critically question taken-for-granted practices of DA, and through our synthesis, we argue that uses of DA tend to be organized around three archetypes: as a method detached from theoretical origin, as a lens with less emphasis on methodological description by primarily utilizing theory to contextualize and interpret insights, and as a path where theory and methods overlap with appropriate methodological descriptions focusing on textual analysis.

运动、锻炼和体育教育研究领域继续利用并努力提高定性方法的严谨性。我们在这项工作的基础上，将重点缩小到适当地应用严格的话语分析(DA)。尽管数据分析的各种变体已越来越多地纳入体育、锻炼和体育教育研究中，但缺乏一个全面的概述，专门涵盖哪些方法支持数据分析和采用哪些分析策略。因此，我们通过从2000年至2022年4月的期刊和数据库搜索中确定1810篇论文进行了结构化的范围审查，然后将样本缩小到560篇专门进行了DA的论文。本文主要回顾了福柯语篇分析、批判语篇分析和话语心理学的研究与实践。通过采用问题化的方法，我们批判性地质疑数据分析的理所当然的实践，通过我们的综合，我们认为数据分析的使用倾向于围绕三个原型进行组织:作为一种脱离理论起源的方法，作为一种通过主要利用理论来语境化和解释见解而较少强调方法描述的镜头，以及作为一种理论和方法重叠的路径，适当的方法描述侧重于文本分析。

Scholars have increasingly called for the need to problematise and critically examine sport policy for integration/inclusion. This article aims to contribute to this ongoing debate by presenting a Foucauldian-inspired discourse analysis of the languaging of three decades of Norwegian sport policy for integration/inclusion, as well as non-sport policy that seeks to use sport as a policy tool. The analysis demonstrates how ideas and practices about the integration of ethnic minorities in sport are constructed in the shadows of the ‘real business’ of sport. Self-evident ‘Truths’ about inclusion/integration convey simplistic notions of assimilation into existing sport practices, reify notions of homogenous groups both with regard to the majority and the ethnic minority Norwegian population, distributing power unequally across the majority–minority divide, and contribute to construct sport as a racially coded, Eurocentric practice. The pervasive, long-standing idea that sport is inclusive works discursively to marginalise contradictory ideas, such as the complexities of integration that focus upon the need for a transformation of structures and practices, and ‘Truths’ like resourceful ethnic minorities or an adaptable sports organisation remain currently almost unthinkable. The analysis bears witness to scholars’ claims for the need to broaden research methodologies and policies for integration in/through sport, such that inequitable, Eurocentric, assimilated practices can be re-languaged to enable hybrid, transnational sports spaces frequented by resourceful participants.

学者们越来越多地呼吁有必要对体育政策进行问题化和批判性的审查，以促进融合/包容。本文旨在通过对三十年来挪威体育政策中融合/包容的语言进行福柯式的话语分析，以及试图将体育作为政策工具的非体育政策，为这场正在进行的辩论做出贡献。分析表明，关于少数民族融入体育的想法和实践是如何在体育“真正的商业”的阴影下构建的。关于包容/融合的不证自明的“真相”将简单化的同化概念传达到现有的体育实践中，将挪威多数民族和少数民族的同质群体的概念具体化，在多数民族和少数民族之间分配不平等的权力，并有助于将体育构建为种族编码的、以欧洲为中心的实践。普遍存在的、长期存在的观点认为，体育是包容性的，这一观点在话语中边缘化了相互矛盾的观点，例如，专注于结构和实践转型的整合复杂性，以及像足智多谋的少数民族或适应性强的体育组织这样的“真相”，目前几乎是不可想象的。分析证明了学者们的主张，即需要扩大研究方法和政策，以便通过体育整合，这样不公平的，以欧洲为中心的，同化的做法可以重新语言，以实现资源丰富的参与者经常使用的混合，跨国体育空间。

Although athletes are considered the most important actors in training and competitions, many studies tend to view them as passive recipients of resources and opportunities that coaches and parents provide for them. This study investigates the active role that athletes might play in training by asking how athletes might proactively obtain opportunities on their own behalf when interacting with coaches. Through a 16-month ethnographic study of one elite Chinese basketball academy, I show that players’ class backgrounds shape their interactions with coaches, which in turn create different training experiences and athletic outcomes. Compared to their less-privileged peers, relatively privileged players not only respond to coaches’ directions more independently and actively, but also make requests to coaches more frequently and fluently. Relatively privileged players’ interaction strategies and behaviors give them advantages in meeting coaches’ implicit expectations in training by customizing the seemingly collectivist training programs in ways that fit their own needs. Consequently, they are more likely to elevate their athletic performances and prevent potential injuries in relation to their less-privileged teammates. The findings highlight the active role that athletes can play in sports training and new mechanisms through which stratifications are (re)produced in the field of professional sports.

尽管运动员被认为是训练和比赛中最重要的角色，但许多研究倾向于将他们视为教练和父母提供给他们的资源和机会的被动接受者。本研究通过询问运动员在与教练互动时如何主动地代表自己获得机会，来调查运动员在训练中可能发挥的积极作用。通过对中国一所精英篮球学院为期16个月的民族志研究，我发现球员的阶级背景塑造了他们与教练的互动，这反过来又创造了不同的训练经历和运动成果。相对于条件较差的同龄人，条件较好的球员不仅对教练的指示反应更加独立主动，而且对教练的要求也更加频繁流畅。相对特权的球员的互动策略和行为使他们在满足教练在训练中的隐性期望方面具有优势，他们可以根据自己的需要定制看似集体主义的训练计划。因此，他们更有可能提高他们的运动表现，并防止潜在的伤害与他们的弱势队友有关。研究结果强调了运动员在运动训练中可以发挥的积极作用，以及在职业体育领域产生(重新)分层的新机制。

Representing the nation in sports mega events has become a highly contested issue with the acceleration of the transnational movement of athletes. This research has examined Chinese people's attitudes to the naturalization of football players. The article discusses the findings in the context of the qualifying stages for the 2022 FIFA Men's World Cup by presenting and analysing data collected from semi-structured interviews and social media extracts. Two main issues were debated by Chinese people concerning the identity of naturalized athletes. One was the ethnicity of the naturalized footballers in relation to nationality, with some people questioning whether they belong to China and can represent China. The other issue concerned the players’ skills and ability which influenced considerations of how much they could help China to qualify for the World Cup Finals. In relation to Chinese nationalism, national identity and Chinese sports, this study reveals, through the window provided by the presence of these naturalized footballers, how football, instrumentalism, nationalism and naturalization have been inextricably linked and have interacted with one another within the current context. The article analyses how pragmatic values have negotiated with ethno-cultural nationalism and impacted on the Chinese public's attitudes towards naturalized athletes, their image being presented in variable and dynamic ways by football fan netizens after each qualifying game.

随着运动员跨国运动的加速，在大型体育赛事中代表国家出战已成为一个备受争议的问题。本研究考察了中国人对足球运动员入籍的态度。本文通过展示和分析从半结构化采访和社交媒体摘录中收集的数据，在2022年国际足联男子世界杯预选赛阶段的背景下讨论了这些发现。在归化运动员的身份问题上，中国人争论的主要有两个问题。一个是归化足球运动员的民族与国籍的关系，一些人质疑他们是否属于中国，是否能代表中国。另一个问题涉及球员的技术和能力，这影响了他们对中国队晋级世界杯决赛圈的贡献。就中国民族主义、民族认同和中国体育而言，本研究通过这些归化足球运动员的存在所提供的窗口，揭示了足球、工具主义、民族主义和归化在当前背景下是如何不可分割地联系在一起并相互作用的。本文分析了实用主义价值观如何与民族文化民族主义进行协商，并影响中国公众对归化运动员的态度，每次预选赛结束后，球迷网民都以可变和动态的方式呈现归化运动员的形象。

What happens to our sporting goods when we are done with them? Even though Sustainable Development Goal 12 focuses on responsible consumption and production, very few in the sports industry (and academy) have asked this question. With environmental degradation now a daily concern around the world, we can no longer produce and consume sporting goods without considering the end-of-use stage for these products. This study focuses on the bike and its role in global waste accumulation through various forms of planned obsolescence. Through interviews with experts in and around the bike industry and waste management, we provide insight into the environmental barriers that are structural and specific to the bike industry. We then advocate for extended producer responsibility and the circular economy as an imperfect but radical alternative future.

我们的体育用品用完后会怎么样?尽管可持续发展目标12侧重于负责任的消费和生产，但体育产业(和学院)中很少有人提出这个问题。随着环境退化现在成为全世界每天关注的问题，我们不能再生产和消费体育用品而不考虑这些产品的最终使用阶段。本研究的重点是自行车及其通过各种形式的计划报废在全球废物积累中的作用。通过对自行车行业和废物管理专家的采访，我们提供了对自行车行业结构性和特定环境障碍的见解。然后，我们主张扩大生产者责任和循环经济作为一个不完美但激进的替代未来。

How do meso-level field relations shape the ways that sports organizations act on gender equality? In this paper, we approach international sports governance as comprised of meso-level fields of strategic action in which male dominance and relations of masculinity are centrally at stake. We focus on the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), showing how the organization's efforts to address gender inequality are shaped by its relations with adjacent actors in the field. These actors jockey to form strategic coalitions as they struggle over the influence and resources to define the field configuration of international cycling, with challenges to the gendered status quo requiring careful management. Based on semi-structured interviews with individuals who held an elected or staff position within the UCI between 2005 and 2020, we show how field relations shaped the work of the UCI Women's Committee during this period as well as the experiences of women who succeeded in accessing decision-making roles. The UCI emerges in our analysis as a central governance unit via which the historical accumulation of advantage to men is preserved. We suggest that studying meso-level fields of strategic action can advance sociological research more broadly on how sports organizations are shaped by their contingent, dynamic, and (gender) unequal context.

中观层面的领域关系如何塑造体育组织在性别平等方面的行动方式?在本文中，我们将国际体育治理视为由战略行动的中观层面领域组成的，在这些领域中，男性主导地位和男性气质的关系处于关键地位。我们将重点关注国际自行车联盟(UCI)，展示该组织如何通过与该领域相邻行动者的关系来解决性别不平等问题。这些参与者争相组成战略联盟，争夺影响力和资源，以确定国际自行车运动的现场结构，对性别现状的挑战需要谨慎管理。基于对2005年至2020年间在UCI担任民选或工作职位的个人的半结构化访谈，我们展示了在此期间，领域关系如何影响UCI妇女委员会的工作，以及成功获得决策角色的妇女的经验。在我们的分析中，UCI作为一个中央治理单位出现，通过它，男性优势的历史积累得以保存。我们认为，研究战略行动的中观层面领域可以更广泛地推进社会学研究，研究体育组织是如何被其偶然的、动态的和(性别)不平等的背景所塑造的。

This study explored the experiences and perceptions of South Korean players on the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour with respect to stereotyping and discrimination. Specifically, we investigated South Korean Tour members’ perspectives about interactions with their fellow golfers, LPGA officials, and members of the media. A combination of group and individual interviewers with 11 South Korean women who played on the LPGA Tour were conducted, and data were analysed using Hatch’s nine-step inductive analysis method. Researchers identified six themes based on patterns in participants’ responses regarding their experiences. These themes included: (a) inconsistent enforcement of rules regarding use of native language during tournament play; (b) inconsistent enforcement of rules regarding interactions with parents; (c) lack of English fluency impact upon pro-am experiences; (d) limited media coverage; and (e) lack of English fluency limiting self-advocacy. Participants perceived that their race and lack of English fluency impacted their overall experiences, in particular the treatment they received from other tour members, tour officials, and the media. Participants’ perspectives demonstrate the prevalence of the “yellow peril” and “perpetual foreigner” stereotypes during this era of the LPGA Tour.

本研究探讨了韩国选手在女子职业高尔夫协会（LPGA）巡回赛上对刻板印象和歧视的经历和看法。具体而言，我们调查了韩国巡回赛成员对与高尔夫球手、LPGA官员和媒体成员互动的看法。对参加LPGA巡回赛的11名韩国女性进行了团体和个人访谈，并使用哈奇的九步归纳分析方法对数据进行了分析。研究人员根据参与者对自己经历的反应模式确定了六个主题。这些主题包括：（a）在比赛期间使用母语的规则执行不一致；（b）与父母互动的规则执行不一致；（c）缺乏英语流利性对亲安体验的影响；（d）媒体报道有限；以及（e）英语不流利，限制了自我宣传。参与者认为，他们的种族和英语不流利影响了他们的整体体验，尤其是他们从其他旅行团成员、旅行团官员和媒体那里得到的待遇。参与者的观点表明，在LPGA巡回赛的这个时代，“黄祸”和“永远的外国人”的刻板印象盛行。

This article examines a relatively recent yet under-researched role in the governance of elite European football – namely, the Supporter Liaison Officer. The Supporter Liaison Officer, as appointed by football clubs, is commonly envisioned as a mediator between fans and the clubs, authorities and security actors situated in the European football field. However, following its formal inception in the 2012/2013, little is known about how stakeholders understand the evolving and heterogeneously implemented Supporter Liaison Officer role. Drawing upon documentary and interview data, this article unpacks two key themes to develop two primary arguments. First, it argues that Supporter Liaison Officers may be understood as ‘social brokers’ that bridge together stakeholders who often possess diverging viewpoints and whose relationships are impacted by social barriers. Second, Supporter Liaison Officers are perceived as possessors of what is conceptualised here as a ‘supporter gaze’. Whilst contributing to the literature on supporter engagement and dialogue, these arguments also matter because if we understand the Supporter Liaison Officer implementation as influenced by supporter activism in Europe, then this article speaks to how outcomes of supporter pressure mature over time and their implications on football's supporter and security cultures.

这篇文章探讨了在欧洲精英足球的管理中一个相对较新的但尚未得到充分研究的角色——即支持者联络官。球迷联络官由足球俱乐部任命，通常被设想为欧洲足球场上球迷与俱乐部、当局和安全人员之间的调解人。然而，在2012/2013年正式启动之后，很少有人知道利益相关者如何理解不断发展和异构实施的支持者联络官角色。根据文献和访谈数据，本文揭示了两个关键主题，以发展两个主要论点。首先，它认为支持者联络官可以被理解为“社会经纪人”，他们将拥有不同观点的利益相关者联系在一起，他们的关系受到社会障碍的影响。其次，支持者联络官被认为拥有这里所定义的“支持者凝视”。在对支持者参与和对话的文献做出贡献的同时，这些论点也很重要，因为如果我们理解支持者联络官的实施受到欧洲支持者激进主义的影响，那么本文将讨论支持者压力的结果如何随着时间的推移而成熟，以及它们对足球支持者和安全文化的影响。

This article aims to analyze the organizational anti-trans discourse on the presence of transgender athletes in women's sport. To achieve this, the petitions published from 2019 to 2022 on the websites of three US organizations (Save Women's Sports, Independent Council on Women's Sports, and the Women's Sports Policy Working Group) were analyzed. The analysis addressed the research questions of how this discourse defines trans women and trans bodies and reproduces the indispensability of sex segregation in sport competitions. The research revealed that the petitions’ authors identified trans athletes as biological males who have an advantage over cis women. The organizations demand that the protection of women's sport from trans women's participation and women's rights be based on the sex (assigned at birth) category. The article emphasizes that members and allies of these organizations perceive biomedical science as providing objective arguments for the sex dichotomy and the exclusion of trans women from sport competitions. At the same time, the petitions’ authors ignore sociocultural factors that influence the perception of gender dichotomy and athletic performance.

本文旨在分析关于跨性别运动员在女子运动中存在的组织反跨性别话语。为了实现这一点，分析了2019年至2022年在三个美国组织（拯救妇女体育组织、妇女体育独立委员会和妇女体育政策工作组）网站上发布的请愿书。该分析解决了研究问题，即这一话语如何定义跨性别女性和跨性别身体，并再现了体育比赛中性别隔离的必要性。研究表明，请愿书的作者将跨性别运动员认定为生理上的男性，他们比顺式女性更有优势。这些组织要求保护妇女的体育运动不受跨性别妇女的参与，并根据性别（出生时分配的）类别保护妇女的权利。文章强调，这些组织的成员和盟友认为生物医学科学为性别二分法和将跨性别女性排除在体育比赛之外提供了客观的论据。与此同时，请愿书的作者忽视了影响性别二分法和运动表现的社会文化因素。
