Andrews further probes how \u003ci\u003euber-sport \u003c\/i\u003enormalizes the ideological orientations and associate affective investments of the Trump assemblage’s authoritarian populism. Even as it articulates the regressive politicization of sport, \u003ci\u003eMaking Sport Great Again \u003c\/i\u003eserves also as a call to action: how might progressives rearticulate \u003ci\u003euber-sport\u003c\/i\u003e in emancipatory and actualizing political formations? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Pivot\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2019-04-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030150013\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-15002-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 167\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47526699892876,"sku":"9783030150013","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030150013.jpg?v=1776036091","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030150013","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
