Description

Sport is of outstanding importance for the military in general and for the servicemen and women in their everyday service and in operational situations. The role of sport in the armed forces goes far beyond physical exercise. This volume is the first comprehensive work to approach the topic of sport and the military and its dimensions from different disciplines - social sciences and history as well as medicine, sports science and psychology.

The focus is on the connection between sport and the military in the 20th century and on the shaping of this network of relationships in the Bundeswehr. The volume is divided into five sections. First, the fundamental relationships between sport and the military are examined - from both a scientific and a practical perspective. The second section is devoted to the practice of sport in the military from a sports science perspective, the third section to the promotion of elite sport. The fourth section provides historical analyses. A concluding section looks at the relationship between sport and the military in other countries and armed forces from a contemporary historical perspective. Volume 82 of the series "Contributions to Military History".
