  • History of the Silent Revolution in Women's
    Sp Soc Int J Ph Ed Sp 2016 - Volume 16 – Issue 2 HISTORY OF THE SILENT REVOLUTION IN WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL IN TURKEY WHERE CONFUSION PREVAILS BETWEEN EASTERNIZATION AND WESTERNIZATION EREN ULUÖZ1 1School of Physical Education and Sports, Çukurova University, Adana/Turkey Abstract. Previous studies have discussed that religious beliefs, traditions and social barriers seriously constrain women’s participation in physical activity and sports. In Turkey, however, although there are no restrictions against the participation of women in either physical activities or sports in the legal sense, it has been reported in many scientific research-projects conducted that certain segments of the society have a negative attitude against sports. The aim of this study was to determine the history of the women’s volleyball in Turkey where confusion prevails between Easternization and Westernization. In this connection, the paper reports on how women’s volleyball has undergone a successful silent revolution and become internationally successful by overcoming religious and traditional barriers. In conclusion, the international successes of the Turkish Women’s Volleyball in spite of its short history, has not emerged as a result of a generally widespread and institutionalized volleyball culture in the country. Ever since volleyball has emerged in Turkey, it has attained permanent success with the extraordinary contributions of the Istanbul teams with large budgets, teams owned by state organizations, company teams and individuals like Selim Sırrı Tarcan, Sabbiha Rifat Erayman and members of the Eczacıbaşı family who were devoted supporters of sports, especially women’s volleyball. Keywords: Easternization; Westernization; Turkey; Volleyball; Women Introduction Sports have been used as a vehicle of self-expression by individuals at various levels almost in all societies ever since the advent of the Modern Olympics in 1896 [1].

    DOSSIER FOR CANDIDATURE 2 DOSSIER FOR CANDIDATURE Turin has always been a leading figure of excellence in the world of Italian sport and its athletes and teams have achieved success and reached important milestones at national and international level in every discipline, just as the Italian medal is worn by numerous champions in our country: Livio Berruti, Pierino Gros, Franco Arese, Stefania Belmondo, the Damilano brothers… Thanks to outstanding sportsman Primo Nebiolo, Turin is the city where the Universiadi were born, and it will come as no surprise to learn that three editions have been held here. th The 20 Turin Winter Olympic Games 2006, which were a great success and met with enthusiasm Borrelli Photo Franco on the part of the whole of Turin society, demonstrated the city’s expertise in hosting and enhancing to the full great sporting events. Indeed Turin boasts an extensive network of sports associations, which involve hundreds of thousands of people in basic sports activities. It is for these two fundamental reasons that Turin’s candidature as European Capital of Sport in 2015 holds meaning and credibility. This is a candidature that highlights the multifaceted nature of a city that has been able to transform itself over the years, to turn from an industrial centre into a university city, and one which invests in research and innovation, tourism, culture and technology. In addition, Turin has always been recognised as a city attentive to welfare and particularly sensitive and committed to policies promoting social integration
