Sport, Statehood and Transition in Europe: Comparative perspectives from post-Soviet and post-socialist societies: Routledge Research in Sport Politics and Policy
Editat de Ekain Rojo-Labaien, Álvaro Rodríguez Díaz, Joel Rookwooden Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 dec 2021
Adopting a critical case-study approach, building on historical and comparative frameworks, the book uses sport as a symbolic lens through which to examine the transition of Eastern European countries to the Western capitalist system. Covering a wide geographical area, from Poland to the Caucuses and Turkmenistan, it explores key themes such as nationalism, governance, power relations, political ideology, separatism, commercialisation and economic development, and the symbolic value of mega-events.
Sport, Statehood and Transition in Europe is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in sport policy, the politics of sport or political science.
