Session Type: Oral
The session considers the potential use of intersectionality for emerging more critically with the interconnections of power, identity and discrimination. It should out-line some key tenets of intersectionality as a theoretical perspective; as a methodological approach; and as a some what elusive and often more loosely termed ‘’framework’’.
It propose some possible contributions that intersectionality can make to leisure scholarship, and importantly offers an assessment of leisure’s potential to contribute to wider debate on intersectionality. It may be argued the ‘thinking intersectionally’ may be a useful means of analysing leisure as a dynamic interplay of individual expression/s and social relations within which leisure occurs.
