Sport has a huge social and cultural significance in contemporary
Britain. This insightful study provides the first exploration of
the causes and consequences of the increased interaction between
sport and the state since 1945. Kevin Jefferys sets policy towards
sport within the evolving socio-political context of post-war
Britain and balances an appreciation of continuity and change from
the 'austerity Games' of 1948 through to the multi-billion pound
extravaganza of the London 2012 Olympics. Ideal for students,
historians, social scientists and sport enthusiasts alike, Sport
and Politics in Modern Britain provides the fullest assessment yet
of this important topic, bringing sport sharply into focus as a
contested domain in public and political debate.
