    Race for Distinction A Social History of Private Members' Clubs in Colonial Kenya Dominique Connan Thesis submitted for assessment with a view to obtaining the degree of Doctor of History and Civilization of the European University Institute Florence, 09 December 2015 European University Institute Department of History and Civilization Race for Distinction A Social History of Private Members' Clubs in Colonial Kenya Dominique Connan Thesis submitted for assessment with a view to obtaining the degree of Doctor of History and Civilization of the European University Institute Examining Board Prof. Stephen Smith (EUI Supervisor) Prof. Laura Lee Downs, EUI Prof. Romain Bertrand, Sciences Po Prof. Daniel Branch, Warwick University © Connan, 2015 No part of this thesis may be copied, reproduced or transmitted without prior permission of the author Race for Distinction. A Social History of Private Members’ Clubs in Colonial Kenya This thesis explores the institutional legacy of colonialism through the history of private members clubs in Kenya. In this colony, clubs developed as institutions which were crucial in assimilating Europeans to a race-based, ruling community. Funded and managed by a settler elite of British aristocrats and officers, clubs institutionalized European unity. This was fostered by the rivalry of Asian migrants, whose claims for respectability and equal rights accelerated settlers' cohesion along both political and cultural lines. Thanks to a very bureaucratic apparatus, clubs smoothed European class differences; they fostered a peculiar style of sociability, unique to the colonial context. Clubs were seen by Europeans as institutions which epitomized the virtues of British civilization against native customs. In the mid-1940s, a group of European liberals thought that opening a multi-racial club in Nairobi would expose educated Africans to the refinements of such sociability.

    EMBARGOED UNTIL 9am GMT, 5 April 2011 ECONOMIC IMPACT REPORT ON GLOBAL RUGBY PART III: STRATEGIC AND EMERGING MARKETS Commissioned by MasterCard Worldwide Researched and prepared by the Centre for the International Business of Sport Coventry University Dr Simon Chadwick Professor of Sport Business Strategy and Marketing Dr. Anna Semens Research Fellow Dr. Eric C. Schwarz, Department of Sport Business and International Tourism School of Business Saint Leo University Dan Zhang, Sport Business Consultant March 2010 1 Economic Impact Report on Global Rugby, Part III: Strategic and Emerging Markets EMBARGOED UNTIL 9am GMT, 5 April 2011 Highlights More than 5 million people play rugby in over 117 countries. Participation in rugby worldwide has increased 19% since the last Rugby World Cup in 2007. Participation figures are highest in Europe, but there are significant numbers of players elsewhere, with increasing numbers in emerging markets. Since 2007 participation has grown by 33% in Africa, 22% in South America and 18% in Asia and North America. In terms of participation, Japan, Sri Lanka and Argentina now feature in the top ten countries, which bodes well as there is a strong, positive correlation between participation and performance. These unprecedented levels of growth can be attributed to three main factors: o Developments in non-traditional game formats, particularly Sevens Rugby’s inclusion in the Olympic program from 2016. o Event hosting strategies often with linked legacy programs. o IRB programs and investment. £153 million (USD245.6 million) is being invested from 2009 to 2012, an increase of 20% over the previous funding cycle. Introduction Following Six Nations and Tri Nations reports, MasterCard commissioned the Centre for the International Business of Sport (CIBS) to look at rugby in emerging markets.
