Outlaw Governance examines two-hundred years of
Western legal development associated with the highly
contentious sport of boxing. Drawing on an extensive
sample of reported legal cases from the United
Kingdom, the United States, Australia, New Zealand
and Canada, this volume demonstrates how the sport
continues to evolve and generate enormous popularity
despite considerable legal, medical and political
resistance. This investigation shows how laws
relating to crime, negligence, contract, public
licensing and media regulation have been applied to
the sport and its practitioners in each jurisdiction,
often with a consistently restrictive and
paternalistic focus. By using popular sporting
narratives to give life to each legal dispute, this
text provides a critical insight into the operation
and limits of Western legal method which is
accessible to any reader.
