Deeply rooted in the conscience of the ancient Greeks, it became a symbol in Coubertin's visions, the «Temple of Sport», the «Church of Athletic Action and Thinking», the trustee of the Sporting Ideal. The creation of the International Olympic Academy fulfilled the dream of Coubertin and his friend loannis Chrysafis, Director of the Physical Education Department of Athens University, of establishing a contemporary academic cen- tre for the research and study of the Olympic Idea. Thus the Academy, in the 32 years of its operation, has evolved into a receiver of world thought on Olymp- ism, but also into a transmitter of powerful stimuli about the concerns and the course of the Olympic Movement. The President of the International Olympic Committee, H.E. Mr Juan Anto- nio Samaranch, well aware of the beneficial objectives of the International Olympic Academy, has endorsed and supported its educational work since he took office in 1980 until today. The Ephoria of the IOA, in appreciation of his significant contribution to the Academy's work, has named the President of the IOC, H.E. Mr Juan Antonio Samaranch, as its Honorary President and at the opening ceremony of the 32nd Session on the Hill of the Pnyx, he was awarded an honorary diploma on papy- rus with the Ephoria's resolution and a commemorative silver tablet of the Acad- emy. The theme of the 32nd Session, «Commercialization in Sport and the Olym- pic Games», was one of the most complex issues ever discussed these last few years at an Academy session. Commercialization in sport should rather be understood as meaning the commercialization of the operation and organization structures of sport which has certainly influenced and altered the relationship between athletes and sport. Although, even today, we feel that we are moving further and further away from the concept of amateurism, as we steadily head toward professionalism and commercialization, we must mention, as a counterbalance, the millions of 9 volunteers who offer their services to sport for free, driven only by their faith and love for this institution and its beneficial effects on society. As a result of this voluntary work, 270 million disabled people all over the world can now share in the joy of practising sport and participating in it. We should also consider commercialization in sport as a phenomenon which involves only top-class athletes; it would certainly be true to say that this phenomenon is not affecting all sports and all athletes in competition sport. Be- hind the champions in each country you find a vast population of sportsmen who have nothing to do with professionalism and commercialization in sport. It is generally admitted that financial support to top athletes is essential, as well as the presence of safety valves which will place professionalism and sport at the service of sport and not the other way round. When presenting the theme of the session, the President of the IOA, Mr Ni- kos Filaretos, drew attention to the educational dimensions of the modern Olympic Movement, to the presence of commercialization and professionalism in sport as well as to the rivalry which exists between them. Fourteen more speakers developed the special theme of the session; in their analysis of the problem, they considered the policy of sponsoring, its legal aspects, its effects on the educational goals of the Olympic Movement, vio- lence, aggressiveness and doping and all related phenomena, from ancient times to this day. Twenty-five group discussion coordinators and 175 participants, represent- ing a total of 69 National Olympic Committees, substantially contributed to the in-depth examination of this topic through their interventions and questions. One hundred and thirteen individuals of the total number of participants were men and 62 individuals women. There were positive reactions and comments on the changes that have been made these recent years at the IOA sessions, in order to reduce the num- ber of lectures and provide more time for discussion and questions within the groups, as well as on the choice of a special theme. Comments about the special themes that were chosen these last years were especially flattering. This year's special theme was the last in the series of topical issues which have been considered at the IOA's sessions lately. These topics were: the view of the IOC on doping as a counterpoint to the Olympic Spirit (1989), Women in the Olympic Movement (1990), Sport for All and the Olympic Philosophy (1991). The conclusions of the discussion groups who debate the above topics, which are sources of concern for the contemporary Olympic Movement, are communicated every year by the President of the IOA to the IOC sessions, pro- viding a concise picture of prevailing world views on these problems. For the first time this year a joint session was held, on the premises of the IOA, for Directors of National Olympic Academies and members and staff of Na- tional Olympic Committees and International Federations. The topic of this session was the exploration of cooperation schemes be- 10 tween NOCs, NOAs and IFs for the promotion of Olympic education. This session was held on 20th-27th May and attended by a total of 97 par- ticipants, 79 male and 18 female. At the session were also present, for the first time, 19 Olympic Solidarity programme directors sent by the International Olym- pic Committee and six presidents and representatives of the new Common- wealth states as official guests of the Hellenic Olympic Committee. Eight lectures were delivered by a corresponding number of distinguished speakers invited by the IOA, who expanded on the need to disseminate Olym- pic education among the young and to promote Olympic programmes as part of the regular school curricula with the help of the NOAs, NOCs and IFs. The lec- tures also covered historical analyses and the modern trends within the Olympic Movement. Thirty National Olympic Academies were represented at the session, to- gether with 44 National Olympic Committees, one International Federation (Boxing), and five National Olympic Federations. The IOA and participants in the session were pleased to note that the idea of promoting Olympic education in the schools is finally becoming a reality after long years of efforts. One should acknowledge, in this respect, the decisive role played by the National Olympic Academies which now number 60 in all and many of which have a major contribution to show in the promotion of Olympic education through national educational programmes. When presenting this brief record of the International Olympic Academy's activities in 1992, we must emphasize the fact that because of the considerable interest shown by scientific and sport circles in organizing their seminars and sessions at the Academy's premises in Ancient Olympia, the Academy was open this year from 1st May until 5th October 1992, without interruption, offering its services to all concerned. In total, 21 events were organized, ten of which were of an international character: two official IOA sessions, four meetings of International Federations and four international seminars of philosophical and educational content. Of the 11 events held by national foundations and institutions, nine seminars were or- ganized by Greek educational institutions and federations and two educational seminars for students from Germany. Total participation amounted to 1,953 people. For many of these meetings the IOA, through the HOC, covered all expens- es of the participants, for accommodation and meals, both in Athens and Olym- pia, as well as transportation costs from Athens to Olympia and back. It is only right, therefore, that we express, through these lines, our deep gratitude to the Hellenic Olympic Committee for its undiminished moral and financial support of the IOA. We would also like to thank the IOC which contributes, through Olympic Solidarity, to the success of the Academy's annual sessions by financing 50% of the ticket price for one young man and one young woman from each National Olympic Committee who participate in the sessions, as well as covering the 11 publication costs of this report.

  • The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany
    The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany Gudrun DOLL-TEPPER, Prof.Dr. (Free University Berlin / German Olympic Sports Confederation) Introduction In 2006, the “German Sports Confederation” (Deutscher Sportbund) and the “National Olympic Committee for Germany” (Nationales Olympisches Komitee für Deutschland) merged, and the “German Olympic Sports Confederation”(Deutscher Olympischer Sportbund/DOSB) became the umbrella sport organisation in Germany. In this paper, the main goals of this merging process, some historical developments, as well as current structures and issues will be discussed with a focus on the relations between the DOSB and disability sport organisations, in particular the “German Disability Sport Organisation”(Deutscher Behindertensportverband), which also serves as the “National Paralympic Committee Germany ” (Nationales Paralympisches Komitee). Both organisations are working together in a variety of programmes and projects, e.g. in the preparation of bids to host Olympic and Paralympic Games. “Inclusion” has become a keyword for many initiatives in German sports, particularly regarding the implementation of the “UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities”, which entered into force in March 2009. 1. A look back: Sport developments in Germany after World War II After World War II Germany was divided into the “Federal Republic of Germany” (FRG, West Germany) and the “German Democratic Republic” (GDR, East Germany). As a consequence, this division existed also in the newly established sport 1 Journal of Paralympic Research Group vol.5 organisations(see Deutscher Sportbund 1990): the “National Olympic Committee for Germany”(NOK für Deutschland) was founded in 1949 and the “NOC for the GDR” followed in 1951.

  • Yugoslav Destruction After the Cold War
    STASIS AMONG POWERS: YUGOSLAV DESTRUCTION AFTER THE COLD WAR A dissertation presented by Mladen Stevan Mrdalj to The Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of Political Science Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts December 2015 STASIS AMONG POWERS: YUGOSLAV DESTRUCTION AFTER THE COLD WAR by Mladen Stevan Mrdalj ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University December 2015 2 Abstract This research investigates the causes of Yugoslavia’s violent destruction in the 1990’s. It builds its argument on the interaction of international and domestic factors. In doing so, it details the origins of Yugoslav ideology as a fluid concept rooted in the early 19th century Croatian national movement. Tracing the evolving nationalist competition among Serbs and Croats, it demonstrates inherent contradictions of the Yugoslav project. These contradictions resulted in ethnic outbidding among Croatian nationalists and communists against the perceived Serbian hegemony. This dynamic drove the gradual erosion of Yugoslav state capacity during Cold War. The end of Cold War coincided with the height of internal Yugoslav conflict. Managing the collapse of Soviet Union and communism imposed both strategic and normative imperatives on the Western allies. These imperatives largely determined external policy toward Yugoslavia. They incentivized and inhibited domestic actors in pursuit of their goals. The result was the collapse of the country with varying degrees of violence. The findings support further research on international causes of civil wars.

    Re-imagining Sociology. Francesc Xavier Benavente Re-imagining Sociology Francesc Xavier Benavente MAFFESOLI, Michel. 2000. L’Instant éternel. Le retour du tragique dans les sociétes postmodernes. Paris: Ed. Denoel. The tragedy of life arises from the nature of will, which incessantly forces individuals to accomplish successive goals, none of which can provide permanent satisfaction for the infinite activity of the force of life, or will. Will thus leads people to pain, the remedy of suffering and death, to an endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth. (Paraphrased from Schopenhauer) Universities, where epistemologic paradigms are set and stored, are reluctant to shake up the foundations of their own convictions. This is particularly evident in the social and anthropological sciences, which have long been separated from their subject, who has become a fossilized object of study. Social and anthropological studies that have fallen behind the natural sciences, studies that for the past 100 years have defined a new scientific spirit that establishes a different type of relationship from what is real. They work with a definition that is quite different from that which classical mechanics taught us, far removed from Cartesian reason and Comte’s positivism in the development of modernity. (1) Relativity, subatomic levels, indeterminancy, no- localization, simultaneity: these are some of the revelations of quantum mechanics and particle physics that do not leave sociologists and anthropologists indifferent. Nor are they unimportant to Maffesoli, Jung, Bachelar or Durand, who embarked upon this epistemological journey along with Edgar Morin, Michel Cazenave (2) and Jean Jacques Wunenburger. (3) Michel Maffesoli is the director is the Centre d’Etudes sur L’actuel et le Quotidien and is the head of the Comité de Recherche sur L’Imaginaire.
