CityEvents
Large international events like the Olympic Games put cities on the world map. CityEvents, place selling in a Media Age addresses the question how cities have been raising their profile internationally by hosting large international events throughout the twentieth century. It explores this question by introducing the CityEvent model. This model allows for the study of large international events from a threefold perspective, analytically integrating the roles of the media, host cities and event owners with each other. By means of this model, developments and transformations in the hosting of events are reconstructed in relation to historical developments in the media. This thesis provides a history of event-based place selling and simultaneously offers insights into the hosting of current and future events. The cities of Amsterdam, Berlin and Helsinki, both as hosts of the Olympic Games and as European Capitals of Culture, feature as case studies.
Hollands goud
Athene 2004, kippenvel. Wielrenster Leontien Zijlaard-van Moorsel valt, maar sluit haar olympische carrière af met goud. Tokio 1964: zwaar teleurgestelde en huilende Japanners omdat Anton Geesink de judowereld op zijn kop zet en goud wint. Sydney 2000: Pieter van den Hoogenband is op de 100 meter vrij, het koningsnummer, 0,06 seconden sneller dan zijn geduchte tegenstander. Hij kan het zelf nauwelijks geloven. In Hollands goud laat Wilfred van Buuren de lezer hun wedstrijden, en die van alle andere Nederlandse gouden topsporters, opnieuw beleven. Wie was de eerste Nederlandse winnaar met een gouden medaille, waarom haalden we bij de Spelen van 1960 geen goud en hoe vaak deed Van den Hoogenband mee? Wanneer deden er überhaupt voor het eerst Nederlanders mee? In Hollands goud alle verhalen en feiten van Nederlandse goudwinnaars op een rij.
A History of Sport in Europe in 100 Objects
Modern sport originated in Europe. During the age of Enlightenment, gymnastics and athletics from Antiquity were rediscovered and changed into new cultural and educational forms, which shaped both the body and the mind. The industrialisation of Britain and Europe eventually introduced organisational patterns that gave 'sport' not only a name, but also a new structure. This was a distinctive product of European civilisation, which spread across the modern world. The 100 objects that are collected here are both material objects and forms of communication which explore the transformation and diversity of sports, games and physical education in Europe whether for training, performing or as part of other forms of celebration or festivity. This book is the first attempt to create a kaleidoscopic history of European sport through its rich material culture and emerged from a desire to develop transnational research in sports history. 110 authors from 39 countries have participated in a genuinely pan-European project, introducing the reader to the fascinating range of people, institutions and places which made up the world of modern European sport.

The Ethics of Sports Technologies and Human Enhancement
This volume presents articles which focus on the ethical evaluation of performance-enhancing technologies in sport. The collection considers whether drug doping should be banned; the rationale of not banning ethically contested innovations such as hypoxic chambers; and the implications of the prospects of human genetic engineering for the notion of sport as a development of ’natural’ talent towards human excellence. The essays demonstrate the significance of the principles of preventing harm, ensuring fairness and preserving meaning to appraise whether a particular performance enhancer is acceptable in the context of sport. Selected essays on various forms of human enhancement outside of...
