    / • A**t*t*h NUMBER 7 MARCH 1963 VOLUME 1 PHILATELIC ASPECTS OF THE PAN AMERICAN GAMES - Bob Bruce - The Pan American Games are one of six specific competitions to which the Inter­ national Olympic Committee has given Its definite sanction. These Include the Far East Games (discontinued In 1930) and the Central American and Caribbean Games, the Bolivarlan Games, the Pan American Games, the Mediterranean Games, and the Asian Games, all of which are going strongly In their Individual cycles despite scattered political handicaps In a few cases. The plan for the Pan American Games is for competition every four years in the year directly preceding the Olympic Games. Entry Is limited to the countries of North, Central, and South America. The first Pan American Games were held In Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1951. Then followed Games In Mexico City in 1955 and in Chi­ cago in 1959. The Fourth Pan American Games will be held from April 20th to May 5th of this year in Sao Paulo, Brazil. With these Games leas than two months away, plans for participation by the ath­ letes of the United States are in the final stage of execution. Yet the very timing of the Games presents some Intriguing problems. Since the Games are being staged In what i3 normally an "off-season" for this country, United States Olympic Committee activities relative to team selection and pre-competltion conditioning are forced into a race against time. In addition, it is likely that the personnel of this Pan American team will exceed In number that on an average Olympic team at the very time when regular fund raising programs are Just beginning to get underway.

  • WORLD RANKING of COUNTRIES in ELITE SPORT by Nadim Nassif
    RIVISTA DI ISSN 1825-6678 DIRITTO ED ECONOMIA DELLO SPORT Vol. XIV, Fasc. 2, 2018 WORLD RANKING OF COUNTRIES IN ELITE SPORT by Nadim Nassif* ABSTRACT: Researchers, media, and sports leaders use the Olympic medal table at the end of each edition of the Winter or Summer Games as a benchmark for measuring the success of countries in elite sport. This ranking, however, has several limitations, such as: i) the absolute superiority of a gold medal over any number of silver and bronze creates the false inference that a country with one outstanding athlete capable of winning a gold medal is superior to another in events where several athletes finish second and third; ii) by not considering the number of countries participating in each event, the medal table does not consider the competition level of each sport; iii) only 87 of the 206 National Olympic Committees won medals when the 2016 Summer and 2018 Winter Olympic medal tables are combined. This statistical feature prevents an adequate comparative analysis of the success of countries in elite sport, considering that 58% of participants are absent. To overcome this lack, Nassif (2017) proposed a methodology with the following characteristics: a) a computation model that gives each country its share of points in at least one sport and, consequently, its world ranking based on the total number of points that particular country has obtained in all the sports in which it participates; b) the introduction of coefficients of universality and media popularity for each sport. Apart from accurately assessing the performance of all countries in international competitions, this study in the future aims to undertake in-depth studies of the factors that determine the success or failure of nations in elite sport.

  • Sport Development in Kuwait: Perception of Stakeholders On
    SPORT DEVELOPMENT IN KUWAIT: PERCEPTION OF STAKEHOLDERS ON THE SIGNIFICANCE AND DELIVERY OF SPORT DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School at The Ohio State University By Badi Aldousari, M.A. * * * * * 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Packianathan Chelladurai, Advisor Dr. Donna Pastore __________________________ Advisor Dr. Janet Fink College of Education ABSTRACT The current study analyzed the perceptions of 402 stakeholders of Kuwaiti sport regarding the importance of three domains of sport (i.e., mass sport, elite sport, and commercial sport), and the relative emphases to be placed on each of these domains. The respondents were also asked to indicate the organizational forms (public, nonprofit, profit, public-nonprofit combine, and public-profit combine) best suited to deliver related sport services in the country. The stakeholder groups were administrators of federations (n = 57), administrators of clubs (n = 80), administrators of youth centers (n = 50), coaches of clubs (n = 78), coaches of youth centers (n = 57), and elite athletes (n = 70). The gender distribution of the respondents was 355 males and 47 females. They ranged in age from 19 years to 70 years for a mean of 39 years. The statistical procedures included exploratory principal component analysis, computation of Cronbach’s alpha, multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) followed by univariate analyses (ANOVA), and chi square analyses. The results provided support for the subscale structure of survey instrument modified from Cuellar (2003). Further analyses indicated that the six groups were almost unanimous in considering elite sport as more critical than the other two domains of sport.

Acevedo Department of Sociology, University of Texas at San Antonio, One utsa Circle, San Antonio, tx 78249 Andrea Liza Ruiz Department of Sociology and Criminology, Pennsylvania State University, 211 Oswald Tower, University Park, pa 16802 Abstract The ongoing denigration of Arabs in the media, the Western democratic political shifts away from Muslim religious freedom, and increasing anxiety about Muslim radicaliza- tion prompt the question: How do Arabs respond to global events when the Muslim and Western worlds are perceived to clash? Our study draws on the theory of imagined communities to examine the extent to which exogenous world events influence at- titudes towards out-group members in the Egyptian context. We apply a “pre-post” quasi-experimental design using the World Values Survey, and examine the influence the events of September 11th, 2001 had on Egyptian perceptions of Jews and non-Arabs. Results suggest that intolerance towards both Jews and ethnic minorities decreased after the attacks. Results also suggest a complex, dynamic association between re- ligiosity and tolerance towards out-group members. We conclude by discussing the theoretical contributions of this paper by highlighting the significance of context and religion when framing imagined communities. Keywords Egypt – pan-Arabism – Islam – imagined communities – religious group identity – September 11th © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2017 | doi 10.1163/22131418-00504002Downloaded from Brill.com09/24/2021 02:55:52PM via free access <UN> 250 Shah, Acevedo and Ruiz Arab-Western relations are a major component of the global political stage.
