Dr. Keith D. Parry is Deputy Head of Department in the Department of Sport & Events Management at Bournemouth University (UK) and an Adjunct Fellow at Western Sydney University (Australia). He is an award-winning writer and educator. His research has examined issues around identity, racism, masculinity, and the conflicts between country and culture. This research has provided him with a deep insight into both the sociology of sport (particularly sports fans) and national identity. His recent publications include examinations of women's sport, national identity, and national anthems.
Keith is also passionate about teaching and engaging students through innovative teaching practices. He is active on Twitter and this is one of the tools which he uses in his teaching practice.
