90
Since the beginning of the 20th century, the practice of capoeira has undergone major changes, mostly because of its transformation into a commercial teaching activity. Throughout the century, numerous versions have vied with each other for the control of this market, which has been expanding dramatically since the 1970s and the 1980s. This paper shows how these rivalries have redefined capoeira by removing it further from a sport-like model.
