Global Games (Sport and Society)
by Maarten Van Bottenburg
Maarten Van Bottenburg picks up on Guttmann’s analysis and Elias’s notion of ‘sportisation’ which he uses masterfully to explain how myriad sports developed in key countries such as Britain and the United States and how they essentially mutated into globally understood and practised constructs that have come to play such an important role in our global culture.
