dc.description.abstract | The main research question in this thesis is why sport morally matters, or, reframed in Honneth’s
terminology, what is the potential of sport as a sphere for recognition? I have argued for the relevance
of Honneth’s theory in order to gain insight into sport and its value both to athletes and to society.
Honneth seeks a description of human agency that is constituted and maintained through
intersubjective relationships. To individuals, receiving recognition in three forms, love, rights and
solidarity, is vital for developing basic self-confidence, self-respect, and self-esteem. These forms of
‘practical relation-to-self’ are essential for identity-formation and autonomy, as well as being
prerequisites for self-realization (Honneth, 1995, p. 129). Since recognition is intersubjective, it has to
be mutual in order to be a manifestation of recognition. It therefore also affects a person’s
relationship to other persons.
Paper 1 seeks to answer the research question by discussing the three forms of recognition, or the lack
of them, within sport. Paper 2 discusses the concept of love within sport. Paper 3 discusses the concept of rights within sport. Paper 4 discusses the concept of solidarity within sport. | nb_NO |
