Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Sport History (JSH) promotes the study of historical, social, and cultural aspects of sports. We invite the submission of scholarly articles, research notes, documents, and commentaries exploring the development of sports; their societal impact; their intersection with politics, economics, and identity; and more. Oral histories and book and film reviews are assigned by the Editor. The JSH also supports historically informed work from disciplines such as anthropology, cultural studies, media studies, and sociology, among other fields of study. With topics ranging from American football to cycling in South Africa to the Seoul Olympics and beyond, JSH is proud to publish a wide selection of sports scholarship about the past with international appeal, written by a diverse array of contributors. Submissions may include historical case studies, biographical analyses, and broader analyses of the social and cultural significance of sports. The JSH also welcomes interdisciplinary works between sports and other fields of study as well as methodological discussions concerning the study of sport history. The Journal of Sport History is published on behalf of The North American Society for Sport History and supports its mission to advance the study of the history of sports by fostering scholarly research.
