The common sense view of free-time activities, therefore, can and should be challenged. Stebbins provides this confrontation by tackling four particular themes: that gatekeepers within the institutions of higher education and funding agencies for research often fail to attach adequate resources to the idea of leisure; that the general population are guided by certain common sense definitions and largely unaware of how an informed view of free time could be beneficial; that practitioners within certain fields continue to refuse to engage with the idea of leisure despite its benefitfor their clients; and that the weak reception of the science of leisure within mainstream social sciences suggests a similarly warped understanding of how people use their free time.\n                \n                \u003cbr\u003e\n                                \n                \u003ci\u003eLeisure’s Legacy\u003c\/i\u003e\n                                 will be of interest to scholars of Leisure Studies and all those wishing to learn more about the vital importance of leisure in modern Western society.\n            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783319597935\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChallenging the Common Sense View of Free Time\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783319867038\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChallenging the Common Sense View of Free Time\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9783319597935","offer_id":39472480190557,"sku":"9783319597935","price":96.29,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Softcover - 9783319867038","offer_id":39422347346013,"sku":"9783319867038","price":96.29,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/22cbfbde-dfef-48bf-87d9-30b1ff32531a.jpg?v=1772084242","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/leisures-legacy-challenging-the-common-sense-view-of-free-time-von-robert-a-stebbins","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
