Synopsis
This unit takes a critical perspective of sport and challenges the
taken for granted assumptions that give sport its cultural capital.
There is an analysis of what stands for sport, who controls it and how
certain interests are privileged and others are suppressed. How these
issues affect and shape school physical education and the development
of young children is considered.
