FOREWORDS 1.1. Message from the President of the International Olympic Committee, Dr Jacques Rogge Promoting cultural understanding and education has always been part of the core mission of the Olympic Movement . The Olympic Games are not just another sporting event . They are a global forum for cultural interaction that educates and inspires competitors as well as spectators . The Games show us the world as it could be, using the universal language of sport to break down the barriers that divide us and to teach us about one another . But sport can continue to promote cultural understanding and education between and beyond the Games, and that is precisely the charge of the International Olympic Committee’s Commission for Culture and Olympic Education . Led by Chairman Lambis V . Nikolaou, the Commission, the Olympic Movement and its partners around the globe are working to find and perfect ways that sport can be used as a tool for positive change . The 7th World Conference on Sport, Education and Culture made a major contribution to that cause . The conference brought together voices and minds from all aspects of sport, education, government and policy to discuss the many ways that sport can be used in education and cultural exchange . Our youth participants made an invaluable contribution by offering their unique insights . I would like to thank Chairman Nikolaou and the South African National Olympic Committee for an excellent conference agenda . I thank the people of Durban and South Africa for their hospitality . Our dialogues in Durban highlighted the importance of collaboration . It is collaboration that will allow for the sharing of best practices among the many organizations throughout the world that are already working to educate children through sport . It is that same collective understanding that will lead governments and other funding organizations to recognize that investment in education and young people is an investment in national and community development . We have seen benefits of partnerships between sport, nongovernmental organisations and others many times . Cooperation between schools and sport ensures that our Olympic Values Education Programme (OVEP) reaches millions of children around the world . It is a powerful tool for change that integrates sport and physical activity within a cultural and educational framework to teach the values of Olympism . The Indian Olympic Association has launched an ambitious project to bring Olympic values education to 20 percent of India’s population . In conjunction with the 2008 Beijing Games, Olympic values were integrated into the curriculum at more than 400,000 schools in China, reaching about 400 million students . Similar efforts have been undertaken in Africa, Oceania, the Caribbean, the UK and the Americas . 7th World Conference on Sport, Education and Culture Page 4 / 69 International Cooperation and Development Department Print Table of Contents Forewords The Durban conference gave us an opportunity to learn from these and other successes, and to devise new

  • Sport in Asia: Globalization, Glocalization, Asianization
    7 Sport in Asia: Globalization, Glocalization, Asianization Peter Horton James Cook University, Townsville Australia 1. Introduction Sport is now a truly global cultural institution, one that is no longer the preserve of occidental culture or dominated and organized by Western nations, the growing presence and power of non-occidental culture and individual nations now makes it a truly globalized product and commodity. The insatiable appetite for sport of the enormous Asian markets is redirecting the global flow of sport, with the wider Asia Pacific region now providing massive new audiences for televised sports as the economies of the region continue their growth. This chapter will consider the process of sport’s development in the Asian and the wider Asia Pacific context through the latter phases of the global sportization process (Maguire, 1999). As the locus of the centre of gravity of global geopolitical power is shifting to the Asia Pacific region away from the Euro-Atlantic region the hegemonic sports are now assuming a far more cosmopolitan character and are being reshaped by Asian influences. This has been witnessed in the major football leagues in Europe, particularly the English Premier League and is manifest in the Indian Premier League cricket competition, which has spectacularly changed the face of cricket world-wide through what could be called its ‘Bollywoodization’(Rajadhyaskha, 2003). Perhaps this reflects ‘advanced’ sportization (Maguire, 1999) with the process going beyond the fifth global sportization phase in sport’s second globalization with ‘Asianization’ becoming a major cultural element vying with the previously dominant cultural traditions of Westernization and Americanization? This notion will be discussed in this paper by looking at Asia’s impact on the development of sport, through the three related lenses of: sportization; the global sports formation and, the global media-sport comple.
