*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 194 pages Published by: Routledge Edition: 1st Edition May 24, 2006 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 0415346029 ISBN 13 Number: 978-0415346023 Book Dimensions: 9.1 x 6.1 x 0.6 inches Weighs: 12 ounces *Product Description* Sport presents one of the most advanced cases of globalization, arguably because there are fewer cultural and political obstacles to the development of trade and international power in sport than there are in other fields. Thus there has been a change in the nature of the politics of sport since the end of the Cold War; the subject must be rewritten to acknowledge a twenty-first century world in which international sporting organizations and transnational corporations have become far more important than states. The Global Politics of Sport presents a range of essays looking at the emerging global political issues in twenty-first century sport including the role, and power of organizations such as FIFA and the IOC; the influence of US exceptionalism; the construction of global sports heroes; and tensions developing within traditionally alternative sports in a global commercial culture Back To Top
