Abstract

Promotor e interveniente nas célebres "Conferências do Casino", historiador da literatura, introdutor em Portugal dos estudos linguísticos e da pedagogia, Adolfo Coelho (1847-1919) foi também - a par de Teófilo Braga, Consiglieri Pedroso, Leite de Vasconcelos e Rocha Peixoto - uma das figuras decisivas na constituição e desenvolvimento inicial da antropologia em Portugal. Tendo na literatura e nas tradições populares o seu núcleo mais sólido, a obra de Adolfo Coelho caracteriza-se simultaneamente por uma visão tematicamente alargada da antropologia. É nesse quadro que podem ser entendidos os seus textos pioneiros de cruzamento entre a pedagogia e a antropologia.

Abstract

"This handbook offers an important and timely contribution to the interdisciplinary field of Olympic Studies. It brings together for the first time in a single volume a complete analysis of current and future economic, commercial, socio-political, cultural and governance challenges facing both the Olympic and Paralympic Games, their athletes and institutions. The book presents new research and broad surveys exploring pressing debates, challenges and possible solutions surrounding the modern Olympic and Paralympic Games, across diverse socioeconomic and political contexts. Featuring chapters written by leading scholars, athletes and administrators from a range of disciplines and backgrounds, the handbook is divided into four main areas: athletes, business, governance and socio-cultural issues within the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Examining key themes, theories and new emerging issues within the field, the book offers expert insights into every major topic related to the Olympic and Paralympic Games, including doping, integrity, athletes' rights, culture, nationality, sponsorship, branding, governance, sports policy and law, marketing, social media, technology, e-sports, politics, ethics, international relations, legacy and impact. The only up-to-date handbook to reflect the true breadth and depth of this international field of research, the Routledge Handbook of the Olympic and Paralympic Games is a landmark publication for all students and scholars of sport studies, as well as those working in sport business, media, event management and administration, economics, marketing, management, politics, Olympic studies and cultural studies. It is also an important resource for sport management practitioners and sports officials"--

Abstract

Les Jeux olympiques sont l'un des plus grands spectacles mondiaux. Nous venons y contempler les Dieux du stade accomplir des exploits, vivre des tragédies, rechercher le geste parfait. Nous y observons aussi - le sport n'est pas hors du monde - les enjeux géopolitiques et économiques, les progrès techniques, et puis les mesquineries, la corruption, le dopage, etc. Un concentré de notre société et des destins individuels mêlés. Du poing ganté de cuir noir des athlètes Carlo et Smith à Mexico aux courses irréelles de Usain Bolt, du parcours de la flamme olympique à l'attentat de Munich contre l'équipe israélienne, d'Alain Mimoun et son mouchoir blanc à Nadia Comaneci et à tous ces moments célèbres ou un peu oubliés qui peuplent notre mémoire collective, voici 100 histoires qui ont fait celle des Jeux olympiques.

Abstract

This handbook provides a critical assessment of contemporary issues that define the contours of the Paralympic Movement generally and the Paralympic Games more specifically. It addresses conceptualisations of disability sport, explores the structure of the Paralympic Movement and considers key political strategic and governance issues which have shaped its development. The Palgrave Handbook of Paralympic Studies is written by a range of international authors, a number of whom are senior strategists as well as academics, and explores legacy themes through case studies of recent Paralympic games. Written in the wake of the 2016 Rio Paralympic Games, it provides an assessment of contemporary challenges faced by the International Paralympic Committee and other key stakeholders in the Paralympic Movement. Its critical assessment of approaches to branding, classification, social inclusion and technological advances makes this handbook a valuable resource for undergraduate study across a range of sport and disability related programmes, as well as a point of reference for researchers and policy makers.
