Filling a gap in the literature on the history of sport in Europe,
the book brings together complementary studies on diverse aspects
of the interrelation between sport and urban space. Going from
geography to political science, from sports history to urban and
transport history, it suggests a three-fold approach. A first
thematic group of researches ranges around "Sport Development and
Urban Spaces", exploring the impact of the city on the rise of
sport. A second focal point is related to "Sport Policies and Local
Identities" with a special attention given to the making of sport
venues and competitions in the making of urban identity. A third
thematic group includes studies on "Sport Facilities, Engineers and
Workers". The articulation of the three parts builds a unique
contribution to the process of identity making at a European level.
This book was published a sa special issue of the International
Journal of the History of Sport.
