Seriousness and Women's Roller Derby by Maddie Breeze
This book explores seriousness in practice in the unique sports context of contemporary women's flat track roller derby. The author presents a stimulating argument for a sociology of seriousness as a productive contribution to understandings of gender, organization and the mid-ranges of agency between dichotomies of voluntarism and determinism.Maddie Breeze is a Research Fellow in Sociology at the University of Edinburgh, UK. She is interested in gender sociology, feminist and post-structuralist theory, and qualitative research methods.
