The Global Sports Arena
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-7146-4116-4 (ISBN)
Athletes are on the move. In some sports this involves labour, movement from one country to another within or between continents. In other sports, athletes assume an almost nomadic migratory lifestyle, constantly on the move from one sport festival to another. In addition, it appears that sport migration is gaining momentum and that it is closely interwoven with the broader process of global sport development taking place in the late twentieth century.
John Bale, Joseph Maguire
