Introducing the physical education and sport pedagogy 2012 scholar lecture

This commentary introduces David Kirk's paper entitled 'Making a career in Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy in the corporatized university: Reflections on hegemony, resistance, collegiality and scholarship', which was presented in the 2012 Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy (PESP) 'scholar lecture' at the British Educational Research Association (BERA) conference. We briefly describe the origins of the scholar lecture and its link to the PESP special interest group of BERA and then make a few introductory comments about the lecture, highlighting a number of points of tension that the paper raises for us. © 2013 © 2013 Taylor & Francis.
