  • Understanding Baseball As a Site of Contested Ethnic and Racial Terrain
    SANCTUARY, SOCIAL POWER, & SILENCE: UNDERSTANDING BASEBALL AS A SITE OF CONTESTED ETHNIC AND RACIAL TERRAIN A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Jen McGovern May 2013 Committee Members: Dr. Sherri Grasmuck, Major Advisor, Department of Sociology, Temple University Dr. Kevin Delaney, Department of Sociology, Temple University Dr. Pablo Vila, Department of Sociology, Temple University Dr. Robert Washington, Department of Sociology, Bryn Mawr College, External Reader ABSTRACT Sanctuary, Social Power, & Silence: Understanding Baseball as a Site of Contested Ethnic and Racial Terrain Jen McGovern Temple University, 2013 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Dr. Sherri Grasmuck This research examines the connections between race, ethnicity, and professional baseball. The importance of this project rests on the connection between the global presence of new immigrants on baseball rosters and changes in the ethnic and racial landscape of the U.S since 1965 immigration reforms. The growing number of migrants and their children in the U.S. is pushing the boundaries of the color-line and is forcing Americans to think differently about race and ethnicity. While the field of immigration scholarship has dramatically increased in response to these changes, research has not focused on cultural practices, sports, or recreation. In a parallel way, few scholars in the sociology of sport have looked at the implications of these “in-between” minorities. This research fills that void by examining race, ethnicity, and baseball at three levels of analysis: the structural context, the symbolic dimension, and the level of interaction. This multi-layered investigation uses a mixed methods approach.
