The Global Sports Arena: Athletic Talent Migration in an Interpendent World

en Limba Engleză Hardback – feb 1994

In addition, it appears that sport migration is gaining momentum and that it is closely interwoven with the broader process of global sport development taking place in the late twentieth century.
