The study of sport has seen rapid expansion in recent years, expanding into more and more disciplines including sociology, history, international relations and politics. Most strikingly, the past few decades have seen sport’s political salience increase greatly, with governments of all political hues now tending to view sport and sports mega-events as vehicles through which to meet wide-reaching, non-sporting objectives. For the first time, defining articles on the key issues in sport politics from the last forty years have been brought together in a single resource, allowing for a nuanced examination of key developments and possible future directions. The collection is divided across four volumes, each addressing a key theme of sport politics: Volume One: Sport in HistoryVolume Two: Sport and International Relations Volume Three: Sport and Domestic PolicyVolume Four: The Politics of Sport

Sports history is no longer a marginal academic subject. It has now been recognised that sport is a significant cultural activity that matters to millions of people and ought to be studied by academic researchers. Correctly practised, sports history is a counter to nostalgia, myth and invented tradition. It can be considered the sports memory of a nation: without sports history there is sporting amnesia. The respected editors of this reference collection have brought together the best and most challenging work in the field for the first time. Covering a wide range of sports, regions, debates, approaches and eras, Sports History is a truly comprehensive collection, divided across four themed volumes:Volume One: An Unfinished JourneyVolume Two: More Than a GameVolume Three: A Force for Good?Volume Four: Flexible Boundaries
