Cover of Gary Armstrong & James Rosbrook-Thompson: Power Plays (PDF)

In der Politik ist Machtausübung meist auf ‘harte’ und ‘weiche’ Methoden beschränkt. Im Bereich des Sports lassen sich ebensolche Mechanismen finden, jedoch kann im Sport weitaus subtiler und flexibler agiert werden. An mehreren Beispielen aus Geschichte und Gegenwart wird aufgezeigt, wie Sport und Sportereignisse zur Kommunikation auch politischer Agenden und Prozesse herangezogen werden können, aber auch welche Chancen Sport zur Völkerverständigung bietet.
