Essays on Sport, Sociality, Education and Bars

If we start from a broad concept of sport and an integral conception of the subject, we find that the former represents and contains a dynamic conducive to societal play in which the subject is the main actor. First of all, it should be emphasised that sport in the contemporary world admits at least two types of denominations that encompass its deployment and impact. 1. individual action practice; 2. cultural social phenomenon. Both respond, it must be admitted, to the functionality produced by modernity, but which should not remain in it as a temporality, perhaps already surpassed by what is now called hypermodernity or late modernity. Hence the importance of studying it scientifically, which makes it an object of study for the main universities and teaching and research institutes in the world. This paper is one more of the many that are written about sport, with the difference that it is one of the few that deal with it as a phenomenon and its vertiginous advance towards social structure and institution.
