Rezensionen

"The Routledge Handbook of Sport in China offers a comprehensive examination of the multifaceted role of sports in Chinese history, society, and culture. Covering Chinese sports history from ancient times to the present, this handbook addresses a significant scholarly gap, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the complex social, economic, political, and gender issues prevalent in Chinese history.

One of the book's strengths is its interdisciplinary approach, drawing from a range of academic fields including history, sociology, political science, and culture studies. With entries written by nearly one hundred scholars from all over the world, the handbook offers an exciting and richly detailed account of an underresearched topic. The handbook's interdisciplinary nature proves to be invaluable to researchers across several disciplines, particularly those interested in Chinese history and sports history. The first book of its kind, this should lead to more scholarship on the topic in the coming years."
