Le sport, découverte majeure des temps modernes selon Aldous Huxley, met en jeu toutes les formes de relations politique, culturelle, économique ou sociale. Évoquer l’identité régionale, par le biais des pratiques corporelles et sportives, c’est toucher du doigt que le Nord est un terreau de sociabilités où s’articulent pratiques populaires et élitaires, spectacles sportifs et engagement militant, culte de la performance et représentations du handicap, nouvelles pratiques de glisse et modes d’appropriation par les jeunes, etc., loin des clichés et des stéréotypes attachés à cette région. Labélisé Jeune Équipe par le Ministère de l’Éducation Nationale (2002), le laboratoire Sport, Identité, Culture (SIC) de la faculté des sciences du sport et de l’éducation physique, université de Lille 2, est dirigé par le Professeur Claude Sobry. Ses trois principaux axes de recherche portent sur les Sports et la formation des identités locales, sur la Communication et les médias dans le monde sportif ainsi que sur le Sport de haut niveau.

Sport is everything, but never solely sport. The commodification of human pleasure in or about many sports led to an increased political interest and dimension with regard to the major leagues and their stars. Corruption and scandals increased, while the human being in sports was and still is very often exploited or mistreated. These problems often relate to the political dimension as well. Consequently, it seems very promising and necessary alike to take a closer look at the interrelation of sports and politics. The present volume addresses this interrelation from different angles, when talking about issues like racism, gender inequality, or classism.
