Sport and Foreign Policy in a Globalizing World, Paperback / softback Book

Sport and Foreign Policy in a Globalizing World Paperback / softback

Edited by Steven J. (University of Otago, New Zealand) Jackson, Steven (University of Otago, New Zealand) Haigh

Part of the Sport in the Global Society series

Paperback / softback

Description

Globalization is effecting a close convergence of sport and foreign policy.

In order to respond to novel social, political, cultural and economic pressures, states are increasingly turning to sport as a foreign policy instrument; and they cannot ignore the corresponding influence that global sport has on their core interests.

This book is devoted to exploring this relationship in detail.

Although any examination of sport and foreign policy inevitably focuses on issues related to both politics and international relations, the primary intention here is to consider the dimensions associated with foreign policy. This book was previously published as a special issue of Sport in Society.
