As Edward Soja, Michel de Certeau, and others have shown, space is constructed through "spatial practices" – not only built environments, but also people's interactions, language, etc. How does this contribute to an understanding of sports? Engaging with this question, we will look at "sports spaces" – playing fields, arenas, etc., but also connections between cities and sports clubs, as well as between nations and national teams. The course will focus on basketball and will include an excursion to a basketball game in Berlin. |
