Recent Publication: Gregor Feindt (u.a.) »Sport under Unexpected Circumstances«

This volume studies the irritating fact of Sport in penal and internment camps as an important insight into the history of camps. The authors enquire into case studies of sport being played in different forms of camps around the globe and throughout the twentieth century. They challenge our understanding of camps, question the dichotomy of insiders and outsiders, inner-camp hierarchies, and the everyday experience of violence.
