Notes
2. The recent publication of the Policy Paper, Sport for Social Good: More than a Game, by the cross-parliamentary UK-based government think-tank, The Centre for Social Justice (Citation2015), also demonstrates this trend within the political arena.
3. For example, chapters within the recent text Global Perspectives on Sports and Christianity (Adogame et al., Citation2017) that investigate gender justice in the African sport-faith symbiosis, sport-interfaith initiatives that seek to address Muslim-Christian conflict and specific social justice issues surrounding the Hillsborough and Ibrox football stadium disasters (see Amenga-Etego, Citation2018; Deming, Citation2018; Jones, Citation2018; Williams, Citation2017) do not specifically investigate “social justice” as a concept but do clearly explore social justice issues in sport.
