This book focuses on the major social and political forces that
have shaped the ways in which sport has been understood, organized,
and contested in an effort to engender social change. Integrating
the history of international development with the history of modern
sport, the authors examine the underpinnings of
sport-for-development from the mid-19th through the early 21st
centuries. Including both archival research and extensive
interviews with more than 15 individuals who were central to the
institutions and movements that shaped sport as a force for
development, this book will be of particular interest to the
growing number of scholars, students, practitioners, advocates and
activists interested in the possibilities and limitations of
sport-for-development.
