摘要

考虑到种族的空间化和空间的种族化,本文探讨了英国主流媒体对运动笼子的表现。迄今为止,媒体对这些经常出现在社会住宅区的笼子的兴趣,一直围绕着它们在少数年轻的、几乎全是黑人的足球运动员(主要来自伦敦)的童年中所扮演的角色。在第一篇涉及这些问题的学术文章中,我们采用了一种批判性的方法,研究了白人空间的想象,这些想象传播了贫困的自然化,并产生和再现了与黑人社区,特别是年轻黑人男性相关的社会病态。书中还讨论了一些经久不衰的种族化比喻,比如单亲家庭、帮派关系和暴力,以及黑人足球运动员技术娴熟、运动能力强,但“不崇拜”或“缺乏”战术头脑。我们强调了这些空间的商品化、开发和魅力化的例子。此外,本文还阐述了笼子在伦敦大量年轻黑人生活中占据中心地位的原因,而这些原因在媒体报道中很少被研究。最后,我们提出了值得探索的潜在研究领域。

‘You either go on the gang life, or you go on that football life’: class, race, and place in imaginaries of South London’s sports cages
In considering the spatialization of race and the racialization of space , this article explores dominant media representations of sports cages in the UK. To date, media interest in these cages, often found on social housing estates, has revolved around the role they have played in the childhoods of a small number of young, almost exclusively Black, footballers, primarily from London. In the fi rst academic article to engage with these issues, we adopt a critical approach, examining white spatial imaginaries which promulgate the naturalisation of poverty, and which produce and reproduce social pathologies associated with Black communities, and young Black men in particular. The enduring racialised tropes of lone parent families, gang a ffi liation and violence, and Black footballers being skilful and athletic but ‘ di ffi cult ’ or ‘ lacking ’ in tactical acumen are discussed. We highlight examples of commodi fi cation, exploitation and glamourisation of these spaces. In addition, the reasons for the centrality of cages in the lives of large numbers of young Black men in London, rarely examined in media representations, are explicated. We end by proposing potential areas of research that are worthy of exploration.

期刊介绍: Journal of Youth Studies is an international scholarly journal devoted to a theoretical and empirical understanding of young people"s experiences and life contexts. Over the last decade, changing socio-economic circumstances have had important implications for young people: new opportunities have been created, but the risks of marginalisation and exclusion have also become significant. This is the background against which Journal of Youth Studies has been launched, with the aim of becoming the key multidisciplinary journal for academics with interests relating to youth and adolescence.
