Making the Team discusses the impact of violence, abuse, and humiliation in the world of sport and in hazing cultures. It also looks at how these practices affect the lives of male and female athletes as they develop their athletic identities and learn their adult roles. This collection thus makes a useful contribution to gender and anti-oppression studies, in terms of the insights it provides into how heterosexual masculinity and femininity are structured, produced, and reproduced in one of society's important institutions. Through these insights we might begin to address, and more importantly prevent, this violence and abuse from occurring in the first place."" - Carl E. James, PhD, Professor, Faculty of Education, York University

Media attention has recently raised public awareness of hazing rituals, generating curiosity, interest and debate about hazing as an initiation practice. Making the Team is a groundbreaking collection of contemporary perspectives on this topic.

This book provides a theoretical analysis of hazing from a sociological perspective, both in the United States and in Canada. It is designed to provide an understanding of hazing for use in sociology and sport management classes and also is highly suitable for courses that examine gender roles and socialization.

The collection chronicles the hazing practices that exist in sport and offers an historical overview of hazing and its emergence in today's sport culture. It also provides a theoretical and legal guide for understanding and managing hazing in sport.
