    Extractions: Sports as Social Studies Part 3: History and Cultures In many ways, sports define a society. They show what people are interested in watching other people do and what they will pay to see. They show how people can make a living by being athletic and entertaining other people. They give people ways to test their athletic skill against other people. Most of all, they give people something to focus on and follow that is a sort of release from the weighty cares of everyday life.

For better or worse, many nations now have two cultures: their indigenous one and one consisting of the sports, movies, television programs, and music whose energy and broad-based appeal are identifiably American. This chapter concentrates on a few of America's original contributions to world entertainment: the sports of baseball and basketball; movies; and three kinds of popular music jazz, rock and roll, and country. BASEBALL The sport that evokes more nostalgia among Americans than any other is baseball. So many people play the game as children (or play its close relative, softball) that it has become known as "the national pastime." It is also a democratic game. Unlike football and basketball, baseball can be played well by people of average height and weight. Baseball originated before the American Civil War (1861-1865) as rounders, a humble game played on sandlots. Early champions of the game fine-tuned it to include the kind of skills and mental judgment that made cricket respectable in England. In particular, scoring and record-keeping gave baseball gravity.

    Extractions: The culture of India is one of the oldest cultures in the world. In modern India, there is remarkable cultural diversity throughout the country. The South, North, and Northeast have their own distinct cultures and almost every state has carved out its own cultural niche. In spite of the diversity, it's bound by a common a thread as one civilisation perhaps because of its common history and transfer of age old knowledge in the geographies. edit The cultural policy of the Government of India has three major objectives: edit The by far most, total endearing aspects of Indian art and architecture prior to colonization has been the strong impact of religious and folk idioms and folk art on courtly art. Although folk art received little encouragement during the period of colonization, independence brought forward a renewed interest in folk paintings. edit Indians join their hands (palms together) and bow slightly in front of the other person, and say

    http://www.wac.ucla.edu/WACSPORTS120.php
    
    Extractions: polk@arts.ucla.edu Course Description: The study of sports can provide an important space in which to think critically about human beliefs and behaviors. In this course, emphasis will be placed on identifying and interpreting the significance of sports and athletics as culturally and socially informed activities. It is assumed that the careful analysis of athletic events, whether they be NFL football games, Mexican professional wrestling extravaganzas, or Brazilian soccer matches, will provide meaningful insights into the worldviews and value systems of the societies in which these behaviors take place. More specifically, analysis can reveal, among other things, culturally derived understandings of the body, ideals of physical beauty and prowess, concepts of racial ability (both mental and physical), notions of gender-appropriate behavior, and critical aspects of group (local, national, ethnic, etc.) identity formation. Course Requirements: This course will be run as an undergraduate seminar. There will be regular lectures on primary topics and concepts; however, a significant amount of class time will also be devoted to discussion. Attendance and participation is required. Students are expected to complete the assigned readings by the date indicated and to attend lectures prepared to discuss them. Students are encouraged seek out information related to daily topics and present the data to the class for discussion. Grading will be based on class participation (10%), final exam (30%), an analytical film review (25%), and a field report (35%).

In the Declaration of Punta del Este, adopted by the third International Conference of Ministers and Senior Officials in charge of Physical Education and Sport (MINEPS III), held in December 1999, ministers emphasized the preservation and the appraisal of traditional and indigenous sports from different regional and national cultural heritages, including the establishment of a World Heritage List of Traditional Games and Sports.
