“…Following from this type of analysis, I contend that thinking about different types of social, cultural, military and political encounters and intersections, could help us as sport scholars to understand how asymmetries of power are made, maintained and/or challenged (Strongman, 2014). Encouraging researchers to place the local in a global context of "travel" (or flows) of people, ideas, concepts and capital signified through structures of race, gender, sexuality, class and so on.…”

When even the so-called “critical” scholarship about women of color and sport, mostly speaks to cultural tropes of difference, the possibility of recovering alternative knowledges becomes limited. For me, uncovering persistent problems from within this field of study, is an essential step to better recovering diverse representations of difference, that are sometimes consciously, and at other times inadvertently, erased. Adding my voice to a number of sport scholars who advocate a decolonising approach, I urge contemporary researchers to theoretically reconsider, and to re-frame, their analysis of difference. In this paper, I do so by utilizing a transnational feminist lens; addressing the transient boundaries of space, identity, belonging, and knowledge production. I specifically elucidate how difference is made, and not just experienced. Through this theoretical intervention, I make an original case for how the “critical” can be put back into critical studies of race, sport and gender.

“…Hybridization espouses the interaction of cultures and it features prominently in postcolonial studies, or the study of the cultural legacy of colonialism (Strongman, 2014). In his post-colonial work, Bhabha (1994) argues that racial identity does not always confirm to the then-prevailing binary perspective of the 'oriental world' (i.e.…”

“…It appears that the two concepts have been unwittingly ignoring each other's dialogue. Much of the postcolonial studies, for instance, have mainly concentrated on 'tracing the patterns of colonial retreat and in examining the cultural legacy of its aftermath' with little consideration for NHRD issues (Strongman, 2014(Strongman, : 1352. Scholarly studies on NHRD have also been predominantly Western-driven and underpinned mainly by a neoliberal epistemology which often assumes that organizational structures are universal and premised on neo-liberalism (Castells, 2010;Lee, 2017).…”
