Aims and Scopes

The journal 'Materiales para la Historia del Deporte' aims to explore the multifaceted relationship between sports and various socio-cultural, political, and historical contexts. It serves as a platform for interdisciplinary research that examines the role of sports in shaping identities, communities, and diplomatic relations across different eras and regions.
  1. Interdisciplinary Research on Sports History:
    The journal emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating perspectives from history, sociology, political science, and cultural studies to analyze the evolution and significance of sports.
  2. Cultural and Political Dimensions of Sports:
    It focuses on how sports reflect and influence cultural identities and political dynamics, exploring themes like nationalism, diplomacy, and social movements.
  3. Media and Representation in Sports:
    The journal investigates the role of media in shaping public perceptions of sports and athletes, as well as the historical narratives constructed around major sporting events.
  4. Global and Local Perspectives:
    Research published in the journal spans both global and local contexts, highlighting how international sporting events resonate within specific cultural settings.
  5. Focus on Underrepresented Narratives:
    The journal seeks to amplify voices and stories that have been historically marginalized or overlooked in traditional sports narratives.
Recent publications indicate a shift towards exploring new themes that reflect contemporary issues and interests within the field of sports history. These emerging topics highlight the journal's responsiveness to evolving academic landscapes and societal discussions.
  1. Sports Diplomacy and International Relations:
    There is a growing focus on how sports serve as a tool for diplomacy and international relations, reflecting broader geopolitical dynamics and cultural exchanges.

    Emerging themes emphasize intersectional approaches that consider the interplay of gender, race, and class, providing a more comprehensive understanding of sports' social implications.

  5. Crisis and Change in Sports Contexts:
    The journal is addressing contemporary crises, such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports, exploring how these events reshape sports practices and public engagement.

Declining or Waning

As the journal evolves, certain themes that once held prominence are gradually receiving less attention. This shift may reflect changing academic interests or the emergence of new topics in sports history.
  1. Traditional Sports Histories:
    There appears to be a decline in papers focused solely on the chronological recounting of sports histories, as the journal shifts towards more analytical and thematic explorations.
  2. Nationalistic Narratives in Sports:
    While nationalism has been a prominent theme, the recent papers suggest a waning interest in overtly nationalistic narratives, favoring instead a more nuanced examination of transnational interactions and influences.
  3. Conventional Approaches to Gender in Sports:
    With the rise of intersectional analyses, traditional gender studies in sports that do not incorporate race, class, or sexuality are becoming less frequent.
  4. Historical Accounts of Major Sporting Events:
    There is a noticeable reduction in papers that focus on detailed historical accounts of major sporting events without contextual analysis, as the journal encourages more critical and interpretive frameworks.
