  • Problematizing the Olympic Games
    ARTICLE Avery Brundage and Racism Maynard Brichford University of Illinois, USA As the twentieth century nears its end, we may profit from a consideration of Avery Brundage, the evangelist of the modern Olympic “religion”, and “racism”, a word which has been used by politicians, publicists, and pundits to describe the causes of the crises and carnage of our century and explain collective and individ- ual guilt and innocence. Brundage is well known to students of the Olympics, so it is appropriate to begin with the context for twentieth century racism before discuss- ing Brundage’s general position and specific controversies. While “racism” did not appear in Webster’s unabridged dictionary, “racial- ism” is defined as “racial characteristics, tendencies, prejudices, or the like; specifi- cally, race hatred.” This definition was broad enough to cover “pro” and “anti” views with respect to a race. A sense of racial superiority is implied in viewing another race as inferior. The encyclopedia article on “race” discussed skin colors, head conformations, and hair types, and concluded that most of these characteris- tics are found in all races. “Racism” and “racists” are major political and ethical targets and “everything about” these subjects “is controversial.” The anti-Semitism and “final solution” of the German Nazis in the 1930s and 1940s for instance, have made racism a very pejorative term.1 Individual racists are identified by their actions and writings. Collective actions are designated as institutional racism. In sports, national Olympic commit- tees, schools, institutions of higher education, urban athletic clubs, corporations, military departments, and professional franchises have been responsible for forms of racial discrimination.

  • Joël Bouzou: Serving Society Is the Main Priority
    Joël Bouzou: Serving society is the main priority World Champion of Modern Pentathlon in 1987, participant in four Olympic Games (Moscow 1980, Los Angeles 1984, Seoul 1988, Barcelona 1992) and winner of the team bronze medal in 1984, Joël Bouzou has been elected President of the World Olympians Association, (the worldwide organization of sportspeople who have participated in an Olympic event). He succeeds the American Richard "Dick" Fosbury A Member of the WOA Executive Committee since 2003 and Treasurer until 2007, Joël Bouzou founded Rassemblement par le sport (Together Through Sport) in 1991 with the aim of helping to socially integrate young people living in volatile suburbs in France through sport. In 2007, Joël Bouzou launched " Peace and Sport L’Organisation pour la Paix par le Sport” over which he presides. Based in Monaco and placed under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II, to whom Joël is an Advisor, Peace and Sport works to foster dialogue and reconciliation everywhere where it’s needed. An interview with the new President of the Olympians... • How long have you had the ambition to stand for President of the World Olympians Association? Several motives led me to stand for this election, but the final motivation is relatively recent. It dates back four years, perhaps a little more, and has been supported by people such as Pál Schmitt 1 and Guy Drut with whom I have had numerous discussions on the subject. Prince Albert II of Monaco, with whom I share many interests, especially the Peace and Sport organization, also encouraged me in this project.

  • Michał Marcin Kobierecki* BOYCOTT of the LOS ANGELES 1984
    POLISH POLITICAL SCIENCE YEARBOOK 2015, Vol. 44 PL ISSN 0208-7375 DOI: 10.15804/ppsy2015008 Michał Marcin Kobierecki* BOYCOTT OF THE LOS ANGELES 1984 OLYMPIC GAMES AS AN EXAMPLE OF POLITICAL PLAY-ACTING OF THE COLD WAR SUPERPOWERS ABSTRACT Sports boycott is one of the most important dimension of sport colliding with politics. The subject of the article is the boycott of the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 1984, one of the most spectacular boycotts, which was conducted by communist countries. It is widely recognized, that Los Angeles Olympics were boycotted as a result of a similar action by Western countries towards Moscow Olympics in 1980. However, evidence proves that there was no decision concerning com- munist boycott of Los Angeles Olympics until a few months before the Games. Preparations to the Olympics were on their way, but unexpected change of Soviet leader resulted in the boycott. Safety reasons were the declared reason for the boycott of the Soviet Union and 13 other communist countries. Nevertheless, it is evident that the real reasons were connected with the political game of USSR. The probable actual aims were the desire to hit the first ever privately financed Olympic Games and to make it harder for American president Ronald Raegan to be reelected. Naturally, at least partly it was also a matter of revenge for boycotting the Moscow Games. Keywords: Sports politics, sports boycott, Cold War rivalry, Olympic Games, politics * University of XXXX. 94 MICHAŁ MARCIN KOBIERECKI Sports boycott is one of the most spectacular examples of sport and politics colliding. States or respectively their leaders may derive political benefits from sport – through winning competitions or many medals on international sports events or through particular victories in prestigious contests.

  • Canoeing at Olympic Games
    CANOEING AT OLYMPIC GAMES 1924 1936 – 2008 1 C A N O E I N G AT THE 1984 SUMMER OLYMPICS The 1984 Summer Olympics officially known as the Games of the XXIII Olympiad were held July 28 to August 12, 1984 in Los Angeles, California, United States. When Tehran, the only other interested city on the international level, declined to bid due to the concurrent Iranian political and social changes the IOC awarded Los Angeles the Games by default. In response to the American-led boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, 14 Eastern Bloc countries including the Soviet Union, Cuba and East Germany (but not Romania) boycotted the Games. For differing reasons, Iran and Libya also boycotted. The USSR announced its intention not to participate on May 8, 1984, citing security concerns and "chauvinistic sentiments and an anti-Soviet hysteria being whipped up in the United States". The Los Angeles boycott influenced a large number of events that were normally dominated by the absent countries. Boycotting countries organized another large event in June- September 1984, called the Friendship Games, however, not even a single competition was held between July 28 and August 12, and representatives of organizing countries, in particular of the USSR, underlined it was not "held to replace the Olympics". Elite athletes from the U.S. and USSR would only compete against each other at the 1986 Goodwill Games in Moscow, organized in response to the boycotts. Where ambitious construction for the 1976 games in Montreal and 1980 games in Moscow had saddled organizers with expenses greatly in excess of revenues, Los Angeles strictly controlled expenses by using existing facilities except a swim stadium and a velodrome that were paid for by corporate sponsors.

    v/i1 / !«£» Number 5 May - June 1971 Volume 9 &%ewiew te ^Pafifioko by Helen Turner XI WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES City of Sapporo on the Island of Hokkaido, Japan February 3-13, 1972 The privilege of hosting the Winter Olympic Games was awarded to the city of Sapporo at the 6«4th I.O.C. General Session held at Rome on April 26, 1966. Since that time the Japanese Olympic Committee has been busy planning for the event. Many of the sites to be used are completed, and some have already been used for regional games. Sapporo is a city which was constructed from the beginning with the idea that it was to be the capital of Hokkaido (formerly called Ezo). It was designed very systematically, unlike Tokyo which simply grew outward in all directions from the site of the Emperor's castle. In 1970, the city had a population surpassing one million, and it will actually be the first time the Winter Olympic Games will have been held in a city of this size. The name Sapporo comes from the Ainu, Saliporobetsu, meaning 'a river with a great spread of reeds and rushes'. It has many natural ski areas, and being the northernmost island of Japan, the weather is ideal with no problems of lack of snow during the time the Games will be held, which has happened before at Winter Games. The Olympic Village is 5 kilometers directly south of the city center, near the Makomanai residential area. Facilities for the athletes and officials are being prepared in what promises to be ideal conditions.

This paper selected related research about Chinese sports development in different historical periods since the founding of China, and discussed the necessity for the construction of new athlete exchange system. On athletes exchange problems, the model of Chinese economy and the demand of competitive sports determine its internal changes. This paper selected the new period since the founding of China as the background, discussed the factors influencing the Chinese athletes exchange: First of all, the regional difference of economic development have promoted the exchange of the athletes; Secondly the current exchange management system can not keep up with the developmental speed of competitive sports, athletes exchange are limited, some provisions even have played an role in blocking athletes exchange; Thirdly, the barriers of athletes exchange take the form of the restriction and limitation in training system; Finally, in competitive sports career in China at present, there is urgent need to improve the links and factors: athletes exchange market is relatively backward, the quality of some sports agents are low.
