In recent years concern has been growing ab out the preservation
ofworld peace, while over the past few decades there has been a
vast increase in the amount of international sporting activity and
hence more opportunities to advance international understanding and
peace. It is this situation which caused the Congress on Sport and
International Understanding to be convened, the idea for it ftrst
having arisen after the Helsinki Conference on Security and
Co-operation in Europe in 1975. The venue for the Congress was, as
for the Conference on Security and Co-operation, Finlandia Hall. It
was held under the auspices ofthe International Council ofSport and
Physica1 Educa tion (ICSPE) and was organised by the Finnish member
organisations, the Finnish Society for Research in Sport and
Physica1 Education (organising association), Finnish Central Sport
Federation (SVUL) and the Workers' Sport Federation (TUL). The aim
ofthe Congress was to analyse the role of sport in advancing
international understanding and to promote research in this fteld.
In addition, the Congress wished to offer researchers and those
involved in sporting activities an opportunity to exchange ideas
about the themes under discussion. The aim of the Congress was to
fmd the answers to the following questions: 1. What forms does
international co-operation take in present-day competitive and
top-level sport, sports for all and other forms of physica1
culture? What is its histo rica1 background and future? 2."
