Abstract

Sociology of Sport emerged as a sub-discipline in the 1960s-70s in Europe and North America to analyze the interdependent relationship of the sporting phenomenon and life in society. Discussions on Sociology of Sport, however, only entered Latin American territory in the 1980s, mainly through anthropological studies on football in Brazil and later in Argentina. This essay outlines the structure of the Argentinean scientific field and locates Sociology of Sport within that system, pointing out the peculiarities of the subdiscipline in Argentina.
