Meier. Discussions on rules: Reddiford, "Institutions, Constitutions and Games" - these are about constitutive and regulative rules, what is usually considered defined by an organisation. Self-imposed rules sounds like what D'Agostino calls the Ethos of sport, see "the ethos of games".Jens Birchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01456079356588065355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060841334850880231.post-73488952924219622222010-06-19T02:07:06.204-07:002010-06-19T02:07:06.204-07:00Hi,

While anyone can pull a trigger and kill things, the activity of hunting becomes a sport when certain (self-imposed) rules are followed, eg, never kill females or young, always attempt the cleanest kill, etc. I don't know enough about rock-climbing, but does it move from being an activity of getting to the top to a sport by the following of the self-imposed rules and codes? Anyone know?Ted Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05107883655440452422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060841334850880231.post-90717096082946373202010-06-15T08:07:49.758-07:002010-06-15T08:07:49.758-07:00At first glance it looks fine, but aren't ther...At first glance it looks fine, but aren't there sporting activities that are not *clearly* defined by rules? Take rock climbing, for example. Plainly there is a code of conduct governing the activity, and individual climbers will also self-impose rules, but none of them seems necessary to the activity.David O'Harahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12262049304946368085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060841334850880231.post-78048350823383135962010-06-15T04:26:22.602-07:002010-06-15T04:26:22.602-07:00blogwalking here,, interesting blog. have a nice d...blogwalking here,, interesting blog. have a nice day :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
