  • BA Ritgerð the Change of Tides
    BA ritgerð Japanskt Mál og menning The Change of tides: The advent of non-nationals in Sumo Henry Fannar Clemmensen Leiðbeinandi Gunnella Þorgeirsdóttir September 2019 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Japanskt mál og menning The Change of Tides: The advent of non-nationals in Sumo Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Henry Fannar Clemmensen Kt.: 260294-3429 Leiðbeinandi: Gunnella Þorgeirsdóttir September 2019 1 Abstract Non-Japanese sumo wrestlers are common today, but that has not always been the case. For over a thousand years sumo tournaments were exclusively held by Japanese men, and up until the 1960s foreigners were almost unheard of in the professional sumo scene. As the world’s modernization and internationalization accelerated so did foreign interest in the National sport of sumo. Today the sport has spread to over 87 countries which have joined the International Sumo Federation. With an interest in professional sumo in Japan at an all-time low and with fewer wrestlers applying to stables than ever before, viewers of tournaments and media coverage of events has been decreasing, which is closely followed by western originated sports having overtaken sumo in popularity e.g. soccer and baseball. Yet the interest in sumo on an international scale has increased considerably. In which way has this rising internationalization affected the sumo world and the professional sumo world and how is it reflected in modern Japanese society, in what way did the wrestlers coming from overseas experience the sumo culture compared to how it is today? Today the sumo scene is largely dominated by Mongolian wrestlers, how did this come to pass and how has the society of Japan reacted to these changes.

By Yukari Iwatani Kane Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal Updated June 24, 2008 4:33 p.m. ET (See Corrections & Amplifications item below.) TOKYO -- For native Japanese, going to see a sumo wrestling tournament is not the same as going to a baseball or soccer game. It's a much bigger deal, akin to a trip to a classical concert or the opera in the United States. With its rituals, sumo taps a deep vein in Japanese culture. Legend has it that two gods determined possession of the Japanese islands over a sumo match 2,500 years ago. The county's emperor is said to trace his ancestry back to the Takemikazuchi, the god who won. Though the contact sport was an important imperial ritual for hundreds of years, it wasn't until the Edo period (1603-1868) that sumo became a professional spectator sport. That tradition, and a culture of formality surrounding matches, put many regular Japanese off the sport, but sumo has come a long way over the last 20 years.

Evidence from Sumo Wrestling By Sang-Hyop Lee Sumner La Croix March 2014 Does Versatility Matter in Match-Play Sports? Evidence from Sumo Wrestling Sang-Hyop Lee Department of Economics, University of Hawaii at Manoa E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 808-956-8590 Sumner La Croix Department of Economics, University of Hawaii at Manoa E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 808-956-7061 Version: 30 March 2014 Keywords: sumo, match play, tournament, belief learning Abstract: In match-play sports, the best players seem to be both versatile and unpredictable in their use of techniques during play. Our analysis extends empirical work on player versatility and unpredictability to the Japanese sport of sumo wrestling. While earlier studies of tennis serves and football penalty kicks were motivated by game-theoretic analysis of choices made by players to start a match, our study is motivated by labor market theories that tie the success of workers to their portfolio of skills and its application to particular situations. We analyze panel data on tournament records of top sumo wrestlers participating in Japan’s grand sumo tournaments over the 1995-2004 period to test whether players with better physical attributes and a balanced, unpredictable portfolio of winning techniques are more likely to win matches. Our econometric results show that better physical attributes, a diverse portfolio of techniques to finish a match, and unpredictable use of techniques are all associated with more wins per tournament.

For other uses, including electronic redistribution, please contact us. 02/06/2009 News The Plus sports page: Deciding who's top At the very heart of sport is a fierce battle in which the combatants strive to outwit and outplay each other. Each thrust is matched by a parry and in the end, there can only be one winner. The rules of each sport dictate how that winner is determined, and, whether it is football, tennis, golf or chess, it is those who perform best on the day who take home the glory. Who will take home the glory? But it's not easy to get to the all−important final. True sporting supremacy cannot be decided in a one−off winner−takes−all event. Indeed, many championships are specifically designed such that the ultimate winners are not decided by the results of single events but rather by accumulated results over time. It is easy to rank teams within structured leagues like the English Premiere League, as each team plays all opponents, so that The Plus sports page: Deciding who's top 1 The Plus sports page: Deciding who's top eventually the best teams rise to the top. But it is not always that easy indeed, more often than not, it is very difficult. Keeping with the football example, how can we compare international football teams such as Australia and England who very rarely play each other? International football sides do not play as often as club teams, so we can't have the same confidence that the team with the most wins over a year, or even the highest percentage of wins, is the best team in the world.
