Written by a team of international scholars, Sport and Nationalism
in Asia - Power, Politics, and Identity is a collection of original
research which addresses a number of issues central to notions of
nationalism and identity in sport including: how the Olympics and
other international and regional sports events have fostered an
active interweaving of sport, politics and nationalism; the role of
traditional sport in the building of national consciousness and
national identity; the way modern sport creates and reflects
nationalism, thereby giving it a voice and a focus. The book covers
eight case studies on countries/regions across West Asia, Central
Asia and East Asia. It is one of the few works that examines the
relationships between sport, politics and nationalism from an Asian
perspective. This book was published as a special issue of the
International Journal of the History of Sport.
