“…cit, 2003, p. de democratas e da esquerda em geral no ambiente universitário 177 . Ao seu lado, está Ben Shapiro que acusa a esquerda de ter transformado os campi em ambientes onde todas as discussões acadêmicas são uma farsa que culmina sempre na atividade interminável de bater palmas para as pautas das minorias 178 .…”

“…Universities are a particular focus of concern for these right-wing accounts as they are seen as the primary social institution that produces knowledge of and about society. Higher education, it is claimed, has been "taken over" by antiscience, radical deconstructionists, and leftists, who are poisoning the minds of their students in order to change western liberal democracies and its attendant capitalist system into an antiwestern communist dystopia (for examples of this argument, see Cruz, 2023;Lindsey, 2022;Pluckrose & Lindsey, 2020, Shapiro, 2010Weiss, 2021). This is a manufactured discursive war in which "culture" in general and sports, in particular, are often invoked as sites of political contestation, or what is more popularly referred to by media commentators as "the culture wars.…”

“There's an awful lot of rubbish around masquerading as Cultural Studies”: Rethinking Sport Studies After the Cultural Turn

This article addresses the (inter)disciplinary parameters and political possibilities of Sport Studies by providing an overview of the state of Sport Studies after the cultural turn. The cultural turn is defined as the influence of linguistic models on cultural analysis and the associated impact of poststructuralism and critical theory on the social sciences. I argue that the cultural turn, especially as developed within the academic field of Cultural Studies, resulted in the elevation of culture as central rather than epiphenomenal to our understandings of how society works. Drawing on the work and ideas of Stuart Hall, I warn against decontextualized forms of cultural analysis, that privilege discourse analysis and descriptive content analysis. Instead, an argument is made for more critical conjunctural analyses, broadly defined as the analysis of socio-economic forces that shape power relations within a given social field during a particular period of time. The article then maps six key forces reshaping the current conjuncture. Sport, I argue, is entangled in complex ways with these emerging and changing formations, and in some areas, sport is at the forefront of the cultural-ideological revolutions taking place. As a key site of meaning making, a powerful space where bonds of attachment are forged, a space of fantasy and play, and a place for identity construction and human creativity, I show how sport is now central to current struggles to remake the world system into a more humane, less toxic and more egalitarian space.

“…Intensified by the "political correctness" movement over thirty years ago, the portrayal of higher education as a bastion of left-wing intolerance remains a staple of talk radio and conservative commentary (see Kirk 2018;Mattera 2010;Shapiro and Limbaugh 2010). Much of this argument is made through reference to extreme cases of "thought policing" and harsh consequences for speech that falls outside the left's acceptable standards.…”

Using think-alouds to understand how students balance free speech and inclusion

First Amendment Studies

Higher education is increasingly under fire as a bastion of liberal intolerance, where freedom of expression is routinely curtailed to protect and coddle vulnerable individuals and foster inclusion. While much of this picture is exaggerated, recent evidence suggests there is some truth at the core of this claim. We explore student attitudes toward freedom of speech on campus using a think-aloud method, in which students are exposed to source material on a subject and "think aloud" as they work through it. We gain an in-depth picture of how students understand and make judgments about who should and should not be allowed to speak on campus. Students tend to be more restrictive than a civil libertarian might like, albeit in (usually) internally consistent and sympathetic ways. We conclude by suggesting interventions that could help students better understand the way First Amendment rights are typically adjudicated and balanced against other lofty goals.
