In 2017 the Olympic Studies Centre of the German Sport University
organized a workshop on Sport Development and Olympic Studies. This
book resulted from the presentations and discussions they
engendered around identifying new international collaborative
research fields and deepening research on the Olympics, the Olympic
Movement and sport development. The effective application of the
hermeneutical method unifies the chapters. The interpretive
strengths of this method sharpen the analytical perspective of the
chapters, with the strict requirements for the use of primary
sources meaning that the contributors have conducted extensive
archival research. Assuring thematic coherence, the studies
assembled for this book focus on the analysis of processes of
continuity, transformation, and development across four areas:
sport institutions and their policies; commissions within and
policies of governing bodies of sports; legacy discussions; and
sport events within the summer and winter Olympic Games transformed
into political and cultural spectacles. Bringing together experts
in the field, Sport Development and Olympic Studies will be of
great use to scholars of Sport Development, Sport History, The
Olympics and Sport Sociology. This book was originally published as
a special issue of The International Journal of the History of
Sport.
