  • Olympic Culture in Soviet Uzbekistan 1951-1991: International Prestige and Local Heroes
    Olympic Culture in Soviet Uzbekistan 1951-1991: International Prestige and Local Heroes Sevket Akyildiz Introduction Uzbekistan was officially established in 1924 by the victorious Bolsheviks as part of a larger union-wide „Soviet people‟ building project. To legitimate and consolidate Moscow‟s rule the southern, largely Muslim, Asian territories (including Uzbekistan) were reorganized under the national delimitation processes of the 1920s and 1930s. Establishing the Soviet republics from the territory formerly known as Turkestan was based upon language, economics, history, culture and ethnicity. Soviet identity building was a dual process fostering state-civic institutions and identity and local national (ethnic) republic identity and interests. The creation of the national republics was part of the Soviet policy of multiculturalism best described a mixed-salad model (and is similar to the British multicultural society model). (Soviet ethnographers termed ethnicity as nationality.) Uzbekistan is situated within Central Asia, a region that the Russians term “Middle Asia and Kazakhstan” – some Western authors also term it “Inner Asia”. Uzbekistan stretches south-east from the Aral Sea towards the Pamir Mountains, and shares borders with Afghanistan (137km), Kazakhstan (2,203km), Kyrgyzstan (1,099km), Tajikistan (1,161km), and Turkmenistan (1,161km). The climate is continental, with hot summers and cold winters. The Uzbeks are a Turkic-speaking people largely Turkic (and Mongol) by descent - and predominately Sunni (Hanafi) Muslim by religious practice. Between 1917 and 1985 the population of Uzbekistan rose from approximately 5 million to 18 million people. However, Uzbekistan was a Soviet multicultural society, and during the Soviet period it contained more than 1.5 million Russian settlers and also included Karakalpaks, Kazakhs, Tajik, Tatars, and several of Stalin‟s deported peoples.

Abstract and Keywords Set within the context under which ethnic-Turks suffered seriously amidst rising communism in post World War II Eastern Europe, this thesis examines the socio- political-cultural circumstances surrounding the life and sporting career of Olympic weightlifter Naim Suleymanoglu, a Bulgarian-born Muslim of Turkish descent. This thesis examines several phases of Suleymanoglu’s life, much of which was devoted to aiding and abetting a mass exodus of Muslim ethnic-Turkish community members from Bulgaria to Turkey, the pursuit of Olympic achievement, and service to the enhancement of the sport of weightlifting in Turkey. By utilizing sports platforms and his remarkable success in weightlifting, widely reported by world media, Suleymanoglu’s life, in the end, translated to a new dimension surrounding the identification of Turkey in the sporting world, one in which weightlifting rivalled time-honoured wrestling as Turkey’s national sport.

  • Economic Model Shows Usa First, Britain Fourth in 2012 London Olympic Games
    For Immediate Release Contact: Leslie Weddell (719) 389-6038 [email protected] ECONOMIC MODEL SHOWS USA FIRST, BRITAIN FOURTH IN 2012 LONDON OLYMPIC GAMES Economist’s formula has 93 percent accuracy rate COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – March 12, 2012, tables revised July 17, 2012 –A Colorado College economist who has predicted Olympic medals with a 93 percent accuracy rate over six consecutive Olympic Games has made his predictions for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London. He uses a model that, surprisingly, does not include athletic ability as one of its factors. Daniel K.N. Johnson, a professor of economics at Colorado College, predicts that the U.S. will top the podium most often, followed by China, second, and Russia, third, with the host country, Great Britain, placing fourth. Johnson’s model of Olympic success has shown uncanny accuracy time and again. He first constructed the model with an undergraduate student co-author before the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia. Since then, the model has proven itself over six consecutive Olympics, averaging a correlation of 93 percent with actual medal counts, and 85 percent for gold medals specifically. This year, Johnson re-calibrated the model, with the assistance of another undergraduate student, Rafael Alonso-Arenas. It now matches 60 years of historical data with a correlation of 96 percent for all medals, and 95 percent for gold medals. Surprisingly, Johnson’s model uses only non-athletic data to make forecasts--- per capita income, population and the advantage of hosting the Games (or of living nearby). In the past, the formula also included political structure and climate, but the team discarded those characteristics this year in favor of two different attributes— a host nation advantage that pre-dates and post-dates the Games actually hosted, and a “cultural specific factor” that helps to correct the model’s historical under-predictions for nations like Australia and China.

  • Brazil Anti-Corruption Chapter 1
    Chapter 1 When the Games Transcend the Games: Globalization, Corruption, and the New Olympic Legacy Executive Summary The founding purpose of the modern Olympic Games was not to see who could run or swim the fastest. From their origins in 1896, the Games were to serve a broader social and political goal: teaching individuals and nations how to unite in competition and to play by the rules, in the hopes of bringing to pass a fairer and less conflictual world order. The historical periods of the World Wars and the Cold War would both challenge and ultimately affirm this purpose. But the founding ideals of the modern Olympics find fullest vindication in this, the third era of modern Olympic history: Globalization. As the world grows increasingly integrated through economic competition, issues of fairness – of leveling the so-called playing field – have become paramount. And a key feature of Globalization has been a focus on curbing official corruption – the aptly named “Corruption Eruption” that began in the 1990s and continues to this day. So too has this period produced an enduring concern with limiting corruption related to the Olympic Games. The issue of Olympic corruption would burst onto the scene in 1996 with the Salt Lake City bid scandal, and lead to substantial reforms within the International Olympic Committee. This book calls attention to another dimension of corruption – official corruption within the host city and country. In so doing, we redefine the concept of a host-country’s “Olympic legacy” to include much more than the economic benefit of infrastructure investment.

That was to be a journalist. I’m still a journalist, but over the past couple of years I’ve added another layer to my work. Now, beyond telling stories, I work with the Aspen Institute to convene leaders, facilitate dialogue, and help my small but rich corner of the world, sports, find the opportunity to tell a new story. Its best story. That is to say, a vision in which there’s room for everyone to participate, and we don’t stop playing at adolescence. Sport for All, Play for Life. I’m inspired by my mother, who grew up poor in post-depression Miami. She picked up one of the few sports offered to girls of that era. She’s now 74 and plays tennis five days a week with women half her age; the game shaves 20 years off her self-concept, infusing her with vitality.
