Abstract

ABSTRACT The work of Bernard Suits continues to be discussed in the sports philosophy field, over forty years after the publication of his brilliant book, The Grasshopper: Games, Life, and Utopia. Much of this discussion has looked at how the perfectionist consequences of Suits’ definition of game playing impacts on gamewrighting. However, it is not just the cheat, the trifler, the spoilsport, or even the subperfectionist that the gamewrighter must be concerned with. This paper uses the spirit of the Grasshopper to suggest that what we should also be concerned about in contemporary sport at almost all levels, and what gamewrighting discussions should focus on, is the loss of player autonomy because of the control exerted by coaches, managers and analysts.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
