摘要

摘要在这篇文章中,我们利用职业摔跤中脑震荡的社会动态来审视和批评文化变革作为解决体育运动脑震荡危机的方法的呼吁。根据英国职业摔跤运动员、推广人、裁判和医疗保健提供者的采访数据,我们展示了与脑震荡有关的经历、态度和亚文化规范。尽管人们越来越担心脑损伤会给长期健康带来独特的风险,但摔跤手仍然体现了一种忽视疼痛的文化,而“玩”脑损伤与男子气概和摔跤身份的概念有关。我们进一步探索了摔跤的组织特征,这些特征促进并加剧了这些冒险行为,并通过确定摔跤中脑震荡的结构性文化原因得出结论。总之,经济的不稳定鼓励了冒险行为,而许多摔跤手的“自由球员”身份排除了医疗保健或家长式保护的任何连续性的可能性。此外,摔跤的主要表演特征的变化导致许多人采取越来越危险的动作,性格发展的连续性和人际谈判在工作场所实践中的中心地位使预防态度与自我认同和社会声誉问题发生冲突。因此,我们得出结论,旨在解决体育运动中脑震荡问题的现有公共卫生干预措施,特别是文化变革的概念,需要从主要基于医学和心理学的模式中多样化,并接受更全面、结构性的文化观。

Concussion in professional wrestling: agency, structure and cultural change
ABSTRACT In this article, we utilise the social dynamics of concussion in professional wrestling to examine and critique calls for cultural change as a solution to the crisis of concussion in sport. Drawing on interview data from wrestlers, promoters, referees and healthcare providers in UK professional wrestling, we illustrate the experiences, attitudes and subcultural norms exhibited in relation to concussion. Despite increasing concerns that brain injuries present unique risks to long-term health, wrestlers continue to embody a culture in which pain is ignored, and ‘playing’ with brain injury is linked to notions of masculinity and wrestling identity. We further explore the organisational features of wrestling, which facilitate and compound these risk-taking behaviours, and conclude by identifying the structural-cultural causes of concussion in wrestling. In sum, economic precarity encouraged risk-taking behaviours, while the ‘free agent’ status of many wrestlers obviated the potential for any continuity of healthcare or paternalistic protection. Moreover, changes to the dominant performative character of wrestling led many to undertake increasingly risky moves, and the serial nature of character development and the centrality of interpersonal negotiations in workplace practice threw precautionary attitudes into conflict with self-identity and social reputational concerns. We therefore conclude that existing public health interventions designed to address concussion in sport, and particularly the concept of cultural change, need to diversify from predominantly medical and psychology-based models and embrace more holistic, structural conceptions of culture.
