Power Games by Jules Boykoff, Dave Zirin - 9781784780722
Verso Books
A timely, no-holds barred, critical political history of the modern Olympic Games\nThe Olympics have a checkered, sometimes scandalous, political history. Jules Boykoff, a former US Olympic team member, takes readers from the event\u2019s nineteenth-century origins, through the Games\u2019 flirtation with Fascism, and into the contemporary era of corporate control. Along the way he recounts vibrant alt-Olympic movements, such as the Workers\u2019 Games and Women\u2019s Games of the 1920s and 1930s as well as athlete-activists and political movements that stood up to challenge the Olympic machine.\n\nPower Games\nA Political History of the Olympics\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note: the price advertised is as low as we can go \u2014 we do not accept or respond to offers.
