Graham Knight


Graham Knight teaches sociology at McMaster University. His research and teaching interests include modern social theory, political sociology, and sociology of the mass media. He is currently involved in two major research projects. The first is a study of television coverage of the 2000 Olympics from the perspective of how national identity is constructed and negotiated through the sport-media complex. The second is a study of the growing campaign against Nike and other sports apparel companies for their labour practices in developing countries. This research focusses on the role of the media in publicizing the campaign and the issues surrounding it.
