AbstractThe connection between sport and nationalism is unquestionable. However, it is a matter of debate whether and to what extent this should be the case, given the potential danger involved. Cases of chauvinist exacerbation and even violence are well known. From a normative philosophical approach, we start with the hypothesis of a thermometer of sports nationalism that allows us to evaluate when these expressions are tolerable or not. As a proposal, we distinguish between assertive, aggressive and violent nationalism. Having examined the pros and cons of sporting nationalism in terms of foreign policy, it seems to us that there are not sufficient reasons to establish a causal link or to claim that it contributes to violence. It follows that there do not seem to us to be any moral or political reasons to eliminate international competitions or to even substantially change their current structure.

Full textAbstract:
The paper first discusses the characteristics of the current forms of violence at sporting events, especially football games, as well as the factors that lead to the manifestation of violence. Then, the author explains the possibilities of improving social measures in preventing violence at sporting events, in addition to existing measures of situational prevention. In the field of social prevention it is especially emphasized the importance of cooperation between fans and sports clubs and the role of other entities whose activities are important or can be important in the field of social prevention. Traditionally, police and private security sector services have an important role in preventing violence at sports events. However, origin of violence lies mostly outside sports and sporting events are often places for manifestation of violence, which requires measures of social prevention of an equal, if not greater, extent. It can be realistically expected that social prevention measures achieve long-term effects in reducing violence at sporting events. Also, exclusive or dominant situational prevention measures can have short-term impact on reducing this kind of violence.

This study investigated gender-based violence targeting high-profile women in virtual environments through the case of women’s tennis. Using a netnographic approach and the lens of third-wave feminism, 2 popular social media platforms (Facebook and Twitter) were analyzed to examine social commentary and fan interaction surrounding the top-5-seeded female tennis players during the Wimbledon Tennis Championships. Athletes were exposed to violent interactions in a number of ways. Four themes were identified through data analysis: threats of physical violence, sexualization that focused on the female physical appearance, sexualization that expressed desire and/or proposed physical or sexual contact, and sexualization that was vile, explicit, and threateningly violent in a sexual or misogynistic manner. Findings demonstrate how social media provides a space for unregulated gender-based cyberhate targeting high-profile women in their workplace in a way that traditional sport media does not.

La violencia escolar se ha convertido en un fenómeno de repercusión mundial, por las graves y duraderas consecuencias negativas que produce en las víctimas. La violencia escolar prevalece en la etapa de Educación Primaria mostrándose de manera física, verbal, por exclusión social o a través de las TIC. La práctica deportiva puede servir como estrategia de prevención contra la aparición de conductas violentas en las aulas, por lo que el objetivo del presente estudio, es analizar la relación entre esta práctica de actividad física y la victimización por violencia escolar en función del sexo. Mediante un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia o casual, un total de 113 sujetos (74 hombres; 39 mujeres; Medad = 10.66, DE = .74) completaron los cuestionarios PAQ-C y “Acoso y Violencia Escolar”. Los resultados indican la prevalencia de ciberviolencia y la violencia física indirecta para ambos sexos. Obteniéndose diferencias significativas entre ambos géneros para la violencia física directa. Una práctica deportiva moderada orientada a disciplinas como fútbol o atletismo conlleva a una mayor victimización en todas las dimensiones. Por el contrario, una alta práctica dirigida hacia artes marciales o juegos populares supone las menores tasas de percepción violencial. Concluyendo que la cantidad de actividad física desarrollada y el tipo de deporte practicado, actúan como reguladores en la victimización por violencia escolar, lo que requiere de la necesidad de promover estrategias que favorezcan la adherencia deportiva en los escolares en entornos menos competitivos y más enfocados en la educación deportiva.Abstract. School violence has become a phenomenon of global impact due to the severe and long-lasting negative consequences on victims. School violence is more evident in the primary education stage, being expressed physically, verbally, and through social exclusion or ICT. Sports can serve as a prevention strategy against the emergence of violent behaviors in the classroom. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to analyze the relationship between the practice of physical activity and victimization by school violence based on gender. After employing a non-probability, convenience-based sampling technique, a total of 113 subjects (74 men, 39 women; Mage = 10.66, E.D. =. 74) completed the questionnaires PAQ-C and “Harassment and School Violence”. The results indicate the prevalence of cyber-violence and indirect physical violence for both sexes. Significant differences are shown between genders for direct physical violence. A moderate sports practice oriented to disciplines such as football or athletics leads to greater victimization in all dimensions. On the contrary, a high practice directed towards martial arts or popular games appears to reduce the rates of perceived violence. The amount of physical activity carried out and the type of sport practiced act as regulators in the victimization of school violence, which indicates the need to promote strategies that favor sports adherence in school children in less competitive environments and more focused on sports education.

Sport settings have great potential to influence social change and are therefore important locations to engage in the prevention of violence against women. The following study draws on in-depth interviews with 16 stakeholders who have been involved with the implementation of prevention programmes within competitive/team sport settings. A qualitative thematic analysis of the interviews was undertaken to examine how sporting organisations understand, strategise and practise prevention work in Australia and New Zealand. Implications for long-term changes in the prevention of violence against women are discussed with reference to key prevention actions and frameworks.

Full textAbstract:
The spectatorial relationship between sporting events and theatrical performance, based on recent sociological studies, reveals much about the nature of any audience position, and raises issues of class, economic status, and gender. Despite the heavy commodification and internationalization of professional sport, fans retain a remarkable sense of psychological investment in home teams, centred around notions of civic pride and communal ownership. They ardently follow the fortunes of their sides in a manner rarely associated with any other form of entertainment, a devotion that can lead to notable violence. Sporting events also constitute one of the few remaining examples of live television broadcasts. Television extends the implications of the sports spectator enormously, and is the foundation of the globalization of sports, but it also affects live audiences through the mediatization of some events.

Of all the cities of England and Scotland, Glasgow is most widely associated with sectarianism. As Bill Murray has remarked, the city is renowned for its religion, violence and football, three elements which crystallise in the uniquely bitter encounters between the city’s two major football clubs, Rangers and Celtic. The clubs are identified as ‘Protestant’ and ‘Catholic’ respectively, although, as Tom Gallagher has commented, supporters’ allegiances tend to be more tribal than doctrinal. Religion is inextricably bound up with nationalism in these sporting contests.

From their very beginning, the modern Games have had aspirations that have extended beyond sport. After brief comments on corruption, philosophy of life, and spectacle, this essay examines the Olympic Games in terms of amateurism and professionalism; winning and the joy of participation; nationalism and ultra-nationalism; the medal count; war, violence, and peace; performance-enhancing drugs; women and minorities; and the Americanization of the Games.

In the overview of contemporary research focusing on doping, violence and fair play, we show how the norms of contemporary competitive sport emphasizing results, maximal performance and victory at all cost may support risk behavior in sporting children and youth, such as doping abuse, inappropriate aggression, or breaking rules and fair play. It seems that this risk behavior is not limited only to the context of sport but translates also in the life outside sport.

Full textAbstract:
While largely discounted as a genuine sport by most, professional wrestling has evolved from a minor source of “entertainment” to a culturally powerful multi-media complex. Attracting audiences in abundance of fifty million viewers on a weekly basis, professional wrestling has become the number one rated “sports-entertainment” program on television. In doing so, professional wrestling broadcasts challenge long-standing cultural constructions of sport in North America, while hyperbolising and unapologetically exploiting that which is highly entertaining about professional sports contests. Specifically, professional wrestling's mandate is to excite audiences via contrived and hyper-violent athletic competition. Drawing on Elias' (1978, 1983, 1994, 1996) and other process-sociologists' (Dunning, 1999; Maguire, 1999; Sheard, 1999) understanding of mimesis, it is argued here that professional wrestling derives the bulk of its cultural appeal from the ways in which the staged violence is presented as both “sporting” and “exciting” to audiences.

The case study uses documentary and interview data, focusing on one of the high-risk Stockholm clubs. Findings The paper makes four main contributions: first, demonstrating how the accounting entity is a changeable and contestable construction; second, outlining how distinctions informing contests about the accounting arena are materialised through accounting calculations and other devices; third, showing the importance of community in a coordinated sense in mediating accounting practices; and fourth, contributing to the literature on accounting and sport, highlighting the importance of state actors in this arena. Originality/value This research draws on original empirical data providing unique insights into debates regarding the responsibility for the payment of police costs in the context of sports-related violence.

Full textAbstract:
Sociological Approach on Sports Ethics in a Context of Social ChangeIn exploring sports ethics as a sociological phenomenon, I have tried to demonstrate how alterations in the nomos of the field of competitive practices (in the sense of Bourdieu), have unexpectedly unleashed a chain of events that have ultimately weakened the ethical principles of modern sport, imposing contradictions upon the way these are manifested in practice. Our theoretical approach to ethics was developed from the contribution of Durkheim, Weber and Elias.The universe of our study was the Portuguese reality during the Democratic state as a case study of the phenomenon. The information collected in our research has required different methods of analysis (qualitative and quantitative) and sources of data (official statistics, news from media, participate observation and interviews).Of the changes that took place in the last quarter of the 20th century in the Portuguese sports field, I have identified the inextricable interdependence of sporting, economic and symbolic dimensions as the main determining factor behind the victory-oriented approach to sporting action, which in turn has led to a radicalization of rival interests and an intensification of competition.As a result of this, there have been changes in the ethos of sporting interaction, weakening the principle of fair play and leading to an increase in practices that undermine it. This has meant that refereeing has become much more difficult, with increased distrust in the fairness of the competition, a situation which is aggravated by cases of corruption and doping. In this context, actors and organizations have become more involved in the ethical regulation of their sport in the Portuguese society. As a result, regulation has become more flexible and open to negotiation, both through institutional channels, and through strategies of pressure and persuasion in the (highly mediatized) public sphere. Thus, contingent solidarities have been strengthened to the detriment of organic solidarities.The growing distrust, together with the dynamics of surveillance and supervision launched in the 1990s, have also contributed to the activation of mechanical solidarities within groups with shared interests, in a context of opposition-confrontation or radicalization. This has been propitious to manifestations of collective violent revolt, and to the institution of forms of premeditated violence between some groups of ultra fans. Consequently, the undermining of ethical regularization has become even more visible, particularly in the field of top-level professional football.In response to the specific nature of the ethical conflicts in the sports figuration, states have intervened at national and European level by enshrining ethical principles in the form of legal provisions, defining systems of sanctions and penalties. This has resulted in a weakening of the autonomy enjoyed by sporting organizations, a principle that ultimately derived from the freedom of sporting associative movement in civil society.

The criminal offences to which consent may act as a defence fall into three distinct groups: those against property, sexual offences against the person and non-sexual offences against the person. This article posits a counterpoint to calls for a consistent application of the defence across the various offences to which it may apply, exploring the role of consent as it applies as a defence to violent criminal assaults, and particularly those committed during sport. It further examines the way in which the civil courts have approached consent in largely similar contexts, when assessing claims in negligence arising from personal injury caused by violence in the sporting arena, and juxtaposes and compares the civil and criminal approaches. Sport can provide problematic and anomalous situations with regard to the law, and it is submitted that this is better acknowledged in the civil law, where the courts have more readily considered revisions to substantive legal principles.

AbstractSport is often considered a masculine area of social life, and few sports are more commonly associated with traditional norms of masculinity than ice hockey. Ice hockey is played with a great level of intensity and body contact. This is true for both men and women’s hockey. However, men’s ice hockey in particular has been subjected to criticism for its excessive violence. Sport has also been analyzed as an arena where boys and men learn masculine values, relations, and rituals, and is often linked to orthodox masculinity in particular. Tolerance for gender diversity and diverse forms of masculinity has generally increased during the last 30 years. However, orthodox masculinity seems to maintain a dominate position in sports, particularly in hyper-masculine sports such as ice hockey. In this article, narratives of masculinity and violence in professional ice hockey are a central focus. Through a narrative analysis of the biographies of two former National Hockey League (NHL) players, Bob Probert and Derek Boogaard, this article explores how narratives of masculinity and violence among hockey players have been described and how these narratives tell stories of the interplay between masculinity and violence in modern sport. The analysis illustrates how the narratives of the lives and careers of these athletes provide insight into the many personal risks and implications athletes in highly masculine sporting environments face. The analysis also illustrates how the common acceptance (and sometimes encouragement) of player violence and ‘violence against the self’ in ice hockey has led to many broken bodies, lives, and careers among professional male athletes.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this paper is to point out the structure and some mechanisms for generating violence in sports. Based on the sociological analysis, the paper argues that violence in sports is a consequence of the concept of the sport itself as violence. This violence, in its contemporary form, appears as a neoliberal imperative of competition and victory, that is, emphasizing the need for individuals in the process of mutual competition to actualize their entrepreneurial potentials. Also, this article seeks to see the current laws on the prevention of violence and misbehavior at social events in a wider sociological and political key. In this sense, the education system, culture and sport are thus becoming forms of expression of this new rationality of capitalism. It is a game of politics that makes sport an area of ideology, in the sense of a kind of hidden apology of the system of social production, which, as a petition principle, becomes apparent, becoming a general value framework upon which to evaluate the success of each initiative. This paradigmatic social framework, this free market hypostasis, results in the reduction of man to a competitor. The value in the services market, the ability to adapt to the system of capitalist production, is taken as basic human value in an imaginative way. Sport in this ideological drive apologizes for this axiological intervention. The ideological role of sport, therefore, is particularly pronounced in transition countries. The glorification of competition, the celebration of the victors, is thus only a first-rate semiological system that, in the apology of liberalism, turns in defense of the very social principle that enables the triumph of the best. Violence at sports events is, therefore, first generated by the very ideology of rivalry and competition. Just like athletes on the field, fans, in cheerleading groups, also occupy certain positions within the group through their actions. However, the problem of violence in sports competitions, in a sense, abandons the "fair play" paradigm. Open confrontations, fights, clutter not only cause harm, but also condition the danger that the sporting events themselves become less commercial. Likewise, insisting on the institutions of a democratic society, whose task it is to ensure the liberal organization of the market, presupposes, in fact, the concept of "soft power", a floating violence, whose true subjectivity remains invisible, masked precisely by the conception of political-economic models, which are prescribed as the only way to survive in modern society. The problem of violence, however, will not be overcome by the use of palliative measures, since its genesis lies in the very structure of social inequality. In this sense, the hope remains that the revitalization of sport will have some positive effect on the relaxation of social antagonisms, which cause various forms of social deviance. In other words, systemic solutions imply more radical social changes than immediate legal solutions can provide. When it comes to sports or, more specifically, sports violence, it means that prevention presupposes a change in those social relations that essentially enable the violent behavior of fans.

During primary dentition, the etiology changes by age group. For instance, traumas secondary to collisions and falls are attributable to early movement within the first six years, while accidents secondary to frequent playing are the main reason within the following nine years, and violence is the most common etiology until the age of 25 years old. Previous studies have estimated that traumas from falls, sporting activities, bicycling, traffic accidents, and violence were the most common causes of dental injuries in children. Iatrogenic causes also contribute to 0.04-12% of dental injuries, including avulsions. According to the current evidence, whether to use reimplantation or not is still controversial and further investigations are needed. Among the various case reports, damage to the permanent successors, root resorption, clot formation, and pulp necrosis were documented as potential complications and adverse events with intended reimplantation. However, many techniques were reported to overcome these problems. Besides, favorable outcomes following reimplantation could be hypothetically obtained as sound articulation, proper mastication, and proper dentition. Therefore, this encourages reimplantation, however, further evidence is still needed to validate the proposed advantages and disadvantages of the approach.

This urban ethnography explores how a group of low-income (often homeless) men performed a range of masculinities through a sport-for-development program in the Western Canadian city of Edmonton, Alberta. For more than two decades, weekly floor hockey games have been organized by local health workers as part of a broader sport-based intervention/corrective aimed, in part, at reforming Edmonton’s urban “underclass,” one that is decidedly Indigenous. Drawing upon three years of ethnographic fieldwork, our intersectional analysis examines both the adaptive qualities of various classed and racialized masculinities and demonstrates the “symbolic violence” associated with their performance in the distinctive settler–colonial context of Edmonton’s inner city. Finally, we examine how these weekly sporting interludes also provided opportunities for more caring versions of masculinity and for more enduring forms of solidarity, support, and community to be enacted and experienced.

In this paper, we undertake a case study of the National Hockey League’s supplementary discipline regime to reflect on the ways in which discourses about social harm are configured, taken up and used in the sporting landscape and how they reflect and reify narrow understandings of crime and punishment. We find that the hockey world employs predictable crime and justice metaphors when discussing on-ice violence and suggest this breeds fear and legitimates governance strategies. The National Hockey League’s supplemental discipline process itself—much like penality away from the rink—is characterized by multiple, sometimes contradictory, objectives. Notably, the league responsibilizes players, long endorsing or accepting vigilantism, refusing to enact structural changes, and compelling players themselves to create a safe workplace. This regime has contributed to financial struggles, chronic physical and mental health issues, and the early deaths of a host of former players.

AbstractPrevious research has shown that seemingly irrelevant events such as unexpected outcomes in sporting events can affect mood and have relevant consequences for episodes of crime and violence, investing behavior and political preferences. In this article, we test whether mood shocks associated with unexpected results in soccer matches in Spain affect fertility. We use data on betting odds and actual scores to define mood shocks and link them to births by month and province in Spain, between 2001 and 2015. We find that unexpected losses of local teams lead to a small decrease in the number of births nine months thereafter. The effect is larger for more unexpected losses, in those provinces with the largest amount of support for the local team and robust to a number of placebo tests. We argue that these results are consistent with the gain–loss asymmetry predicted by prospect theory.

Full textAbstract:
Sports, apart from providing entertainment, can provide an escape from everyday troubles, a community to belong to, and an opportunity to connect to the wider world. As such, sports have contributed to the unification of people, the development of peace and tolerance, and the empowerment of women and young people globally. However, sports’ widespread popularity has also contributed to “big money” opportunities for sports organizations, sporting venues, athletes, and sponsors that have created an environment riddled with ethical dilemmas that make headlines, resulting in protests and violence, and often leave society more divided. A current ethical dilemma faced by agents associated with the Olympic games serves to demonstrate the magnitude and challenges related to resolving ethical dilemmas in the sport industry. A decision-making framework is applied to this current sport’s ethical dilemma, as an example of how better ethical decision making might be achieved.

The Brazilian Anti-Terrorism Bill (no. 13.260/2016) was drafted and approved in the context of the street demonstrations to have occurred from 2013 to 2015 and the state violence to have erupted in their wake, linked to the major sporting events held over the period. An examination of the process by which this legislation was implemented prompts a debate over its constitution as a legal mechanism able to justify extraordinary measures within a formal democratic regime. It is based on this premise that an exploratory and explanatory analysis is provided of the social, political, and historical phenomena raised by the question debated in the article. Such an approach thus seeks to demonstrate how legal uncertainty – transmitted through the use of vague expressions – allows the state power to endow the Brazilian State with the capacity to act freely and to selectively frame social and political demonstrations as acts of terrorism.

ABSTRACT Background Major sporting events are associated with violence, creating societal and healthcare system burdens. However, these associations have not been objectively evaluated in low- and middle-income countries, where resources for violence prevention and injury control are limited. The objective of this study was to determine whether the days of football events were associated with changes in homicide rates in Cali, Colombia. Study design Ecologic study conducted during 2005 to 2008 using a time-series design. Football days were those in which the city's professional teams or the national team played nationally or internationally (279 days). Daily counts of homicides were obtained from the city's fatal injury surveillance system. Homicide rates were computed using population estimates to adjudicate person-years of exposure. In stepwise conditional autoregressive negative binomial regressions adjusted for victims’ demographics, known sociopolitical and cultural factors, weekends, holidays, trends and seasonality, homicide rates during football days were compared against homicide rates during non-football days. Results There were 1,352 homicides during football days and 4,767 homicides during non-football days (rate, 82 and 68 per 100,000 person-years respectively, p < 0.001). There was an increased risk of homicides during home game days (IRR 1.11, 95%CI 1.01-1.21, p = 0.022) compared to non-football days. There was an increased risk of homicides during the day after football game (IRR 1.08, 95%CI 1.00-1.16, p = 0.041) compared to other days. The outcome of the games was not statistically significantly associated with increased risk of homicides. Conclusion This analysis suggests that football days were associated with increased risk of homicides in Cali, Colombia. Violence prevention and injury control efforts should be increased on days of home games and on the next day after football. The healthcare system should allocate and optimize resources these days, given the increased demand for trauma care. Educational and preventive civic interventions should be instituted around these events. How to cite this article Sánchez ÁI, Krafty RT, Puyana JC, Gutiérrez MI.

The intense historical relationship linking Jamaica and Britain to 300 years of the transatlantic slave trade and 200 years of colonialism has left 2.7 million souls living in Jamaica, 80% of African origin, 15% of mixed Creole background and 5% of Asian Indian, Chinese and European ancestry. With a per capita gross domestic product of US$4104 in 2007, one-third of the population is impoverished, the majority struggling for economic survival. The prevailing religion is Protestant, although the presence of African retentions such as Obeah and Pocomania are still widely and profoundly experienced, and the powerful Rastafarian movement emerged as a countercultural religious force after 1930. The paradox and contradictions of five centuries of Jamaican resistance to slavery and colonial oppression have spawned a tiny, resilient, creative, multicultural island people, who have achieved a worldwide philosophical, political and religious impact, phenomenal sporting prowess, astonishing musical and performing creativity, and a criminal underworld that has stunned by its propensity for violence.

Encouraged by the violent behavior of certain football fans in Brussels at Heysel Stadium on 29 May 1985, the Council of Europe European Convention on Spectator Violence and Misbehaviour at Sports Events and in particular at Football Matches i.e. Convention no. 120 (CETS no. 120) which entered into force on 1 November 1985. Convention no. 120 retained its original features until 2013 when the Council of Ministers concluded that it was outdated and that it was not in line with the experience gained since the entry into force. Consequently, the Standing Committee decided to draft a new text of the Convention and it resulted with Convention no. 218 (CETS no. 218) i.e. Council of Europe's Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security, and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events. Safety measures, security measures and measures in the area of services, as a key part of Convention No. 218, aim to create a safe and secure environment at all sports events. An integrated approach to safety and security requires coordination at the international, national and local levels, and emphasizes the importance of effective co-operation with the police, emergency services and other partners not only in terms of guaranteeing physical security but also in preventing discriminatory and racist behavior. The importance of establishing a national football information point has also been established as a key mediator in the exchange of information on football matches with an international character as well as for the international cooperation of state bodies essential for the safety and security at football matches. Reasons for the emergence of Convention no. 218 is not only in the prevention of violent behavior at sporting events and in improving safety and security, but also in further development and better coordination of international cooperation in the prosecution of perpetrators of such inappropriate acts.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractVicarious liability has a greater reach within both professional and amateur football than previously thought. The newly-expanded doctrine has opened up vicarious liability for amateur players, and within grassroots teams. A greater range of torts may also now trigger vicarious liability, such as acts of on and off-pitch violence. The Football Association will need to review the scope of the National Game Insurance Scheme, which significantly lags behind this expanded exposure to vicarious liability.Examining vicarious liability in the context of football also reveals significant problems with the current approach to vicarious liability within unincorporated associations. This category developed in the context of institutional abuse within highly-organised religious institutions; it does not mean that this category of vicarious liability should be applied to grassroots sporting organisations in the same way. For instance there is scope to apply a different test at stage two. It is argued that the courts will need to tighten up this category so as not to unnecessarily expose members of grass roots organisations to vicarious liability which is able to be executed against their personal assets. Both amateur and professional clubs may also wish to carefully consider their selection of players.

Full textAbstract:
This paper compares two hockey-related breast-flashing events that occurred in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The first was performed by Calgary Flames fans, the ‘Flamesgirls’, in the 2004 NHL Stanley Cup final, and the second flashing event occurred when members and fans of the Booby Orr hockey team participated in lifting their shirts and jerseys at a lesbian hockey tournament at the 2007 Outgames/Western Cup held in Calgary. We deploy an analysis of visual psychic economies to highlight psychoanalytic framings of masculinized and feminized subject positions in both heteronormative and lesbigay-coded sporting spaces. We suggest there is a queer twist to the Booby Orr flashing context, which we read as disruptive and potentially resistive. The paper ends by turning to Avery Gordon’s (1997) Ghostly Matters, to consider how even in its queer transgression, the Booby Orr flashing scene is simultaneously haunted and saturated by the absent presence of colonial technologies of visuality and sexual violence. It is argued that in this case, openings for transgressive gender dynamics might be imaginable—even as those logics themselves are disciplined and perhaps made possible through racialized colonial framings of appropriate desire.

Writers have compared the media frenzy of the Gulf War to the coverage ofa football game. Critics noted the pep rally atmosphere created by journalists(Charles Osgood's description of US bombing as a "marvel"; Dan Rather's"Congratulations on a job wonderfully done."). A Chicago Tribune cartoon portrayedSaudi and Kuwaiti emirs in luxury boxes awaiting the war, heckling Bush to “Throw the bomb!” Perhaps it was that pause in the second week of thebombing, allowing most US soldiers to watch the Super Bowl, but Americansdid seem to confuse the war with a sporting event. Both features perceived goodguys and bad guys, satisfying but guilt-free violence, little sympathy for thecasualties . . . and plenty of cheerleaders.Books about the Gulf War extend this comparison to sports coverage. Afterthe big game, our fist wave of analysts report from postgame interviews. Theseare generally shallow and simplistic, breathless with elation and self-glory.Comparable books on the Gulf War, including biographies of Schwarzkopf,Powell, and Bush, now cram the discount tables at the large booksellers. Insports, the second wave of analysts, back in the studio, offer somewhat meatierexplanations and more subtle rationalizations for the events just reported. Theiremotions are thinly concealed in a semblance of objectivity ...

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the research of opportunities and prospects to use “Take a knee” protest in professional sports for Nike marketing purposes in terms of influencing customer loyalty to that brand. The action “Take a knee” became widely known in 2016, when the coloured quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, Colin Kaepernick, knelt in protest while singing the national anthem of the United States of America before several games to denounce police violence against blacks and coloured people. In 2017 the European community for professional sports firstly supported that action, when Hertha BSC’s Bundesliga team went down on their knees before the kick-off of a Bundesliga game to demonstrate for diversity, tolerance and responsibility. Since Hertha BSC is equipped with the sporting goods of Nike manufacturer, the article suggested and tested the hypothesis that “Take a knee” could have an impact on customer loyalty growth to the Nike brand. The systematization of the relevant literature sources and approaches to study the demand for sports goods indicates the lack of comprehensive research on the analysis regarding the impact of the atypical advertising measures on consumer behaviour. Based on the systematization of literary sources, the article identifies the controversy of marketing activities with people who engage in politics. Furthermore, the article defines the moral role of individual athletes or teams of different sports using the example of American football and football (also known as soccer). The methodological basis of the study was analytical and comparative methods, methods of analysis, synthesis, and logical generalization. The paper presents the results of an empirical analysis based on a survey of potential customers of sporting goods in Germany in early 2020 with a sample size of 135 respondents. The authors substantiate the importance of continuous and systematic work by the advertising companies aimed at attracting famous people who are politically engaged in advertising companies as a guarantee of increasing customer loyalty. The results of the study can be useful for both business and advertising companies in terms of the choice of marketing communication tools between manufacturer and customer.

Full textAbstract:
Hurling in Cornwall, la soule in Britanny, Shrovetide football in England: Popular games have normally been treated as forerunners of modern sport, sport having regulated the space and the time of the game, the (non-) violence of behaviour, the control of results, the planning, strategy, tactics, techniques and evaluation of the competitive action. This is told as a story of social improvement and progress – and about turning unhealthy wildness into civilized ‘healthy’ sport activity. What sociological analysis of game-playing tended to ignore was the laughter of the participants. With the seriousness of modern sport, as it was established in the nineteenth century, a culture of laughter disappeared. This study tries to counter this mainstream by a pheno - menology of laughter in popular games. A contrasting attention is turned towards the seriousness of sporting competition, the smile in modern sport and fitness, and the ‘underground’ dimension of laughter in modern sports. By comparative analysis, laughter reveals as a bodily discourse about the imperfect human being. It tells an oppositional story about the perfectionism in the order of Western thinking – in sports as well as in health. The bodily ‘physiology’ of laughter, the exploding psychical energy, and the inter-bodily social relations in laughter and play and game point towards the multi - dimensionality of health, as it was formulated by WHO: as “physical, mental, and social well-being”.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the current study was to conduct an examination of spectator (i.e., parental) behavior at youth hockey games in a large Canadian city. Using naturalistic observation methods, an event sampling procedure was used to code spectators’ comments. Of specific interest were the type of remarks made, who made them (i.e., males versus females), the intensity of those remarks and whether they varied by child age, gender, and competitive level. We were also interested in whether the majority of onlookers’ comments were actually directed at the players, on-ice officials, or fellow spectators. Five observers attended 69 hockey games during the 2006–2007 hockey season. There was a significant variability in the number of comments made, with an average of 105 comments per game. The majority of the comments were generally positive ones, directed at the players. Negative comments, although quite infrequent, were directed largely at the referees. Females made more comments than did males, although males made more negative and corrective comments, and females made mostly positive comments. Comments varied significantly as a function of gender and competitive level. Proportionally more negative comments were made at competitive, as opposed to recreational games. An interaction was found for female spectators as their comments varied as a function of both the competitive level and the gender of the players. Results of this study are in direct contrast to media reports of extreme parental violence at youth hockey games, and provide unique information about the role of parental involvement at youth sporting events.

Full textAbstract:
This essay examines the intersection of the politics of post-apartheid South Africa and the politics of playing rugby. It traces the sport’s history through its manifestations in the apartheid state and the anti-apartheid struggle, but it also shows that South African rugby counts for more than the sum of these histories. Drawing inspiration from the writings of Claude Lévi-Strauss and Franz Boas, as well as from the aesthetic theory of Theodor Adorno, the article argues that rugby contains an inherent dimension of unpredictability that allows it to recombine and challenge the symbols and sentiments assigned to it. Considered in this way, rugby acquires a measure of autonomy as a social production, shaping possibilities and entering into existing political conversations with its own voice. Acknowledging this small space of unpredictability, then, carries important implications for how we theorize sporting performances in relation to other forms of creative expression. Rugby players, coaches, and teams, for their part, are well aware of the sport’s autonomous dimension, and they know that they must negotiate the uncertainty of the sport if they wish to participate at all. These social actors regard uncertainty as a problem to be solved, and they conceptualize and work through rugby’s layering of unpredictable instant atop unpredictable instant in socially and historically specific ways. As a result, the negotiations between South Africans and their rugby become a powerful heuristic for post-apartheid social life, and they produce not only violence and injuries but also moments of magic thick with political significance.

RésuméLes analyses plurielles concernant le couple sports et violences se multiplient: pour certains, le sport s’inscrit clairement dans un processus historique de domination symbolique et rituelle de la violence et de régulation de l’agressivité, alors que pour d’autres, la violence est au coeur de l’organisation territoriale des activités sportives et l’un des principaux maux dont souffrent ces activités. Mais les violences dans le sport se situent dans des territoires et la géographie, en précisant leurs localisations, leurs dimensions et leurs propriétés, permet l’étude des rapports des sociétés à leurs espaces. Cet article vise à montrer comment les violences accompagnant les pratiques sportives se situent dans des lieux spécifiques, que ce soit autour des stades, dans les stades ou dans les espaces de nature accaparés par des groupes de pratiquants. Il est à la fois un état des lieux prenant en compte diverses recherches en cours et une invitation à poursuivre les réflexions territoriales concernant le couple violences et sports. Après la présentation des interprétations historiques du phénomène considérant le sport de compétition soit comme un élément des codifications de la violence, soit comme une guerre en miniature, notre article propose une analyse des violences contemporaines autour des stades de football (soccer) et enfin une réflexion sur les affrontements territoriaux des sportifs.

Full textAbstract:
Factors related to physical behaviour of children are important in understanding the characteristics of their physical activity. Apart from the factors of physical environment, social and demographical factors are also related to physical activity levels. Randomly selected 669 children (9.9±0.8 years; 48.8% boys) from randomly selected Slovenian elementary schools participated in this study. All data were obtained during a single measurement in May 2010. The standardized questionnaire The Quality of Life Survey was used to measure physical activity (PA) levels as well as social and demographic factors which could be associated with it. The results indicated higher PA levels in boys than in girls (704±286 min/week vs. 617±268 min/week; p<.001). The analysis of variance confirmed higher PA levels in girls with parents of a higher socioeconomic status (SES) (p=.0018); in boys, there were no differences in PA levels according SES (p=.580). In both the boys (p=.047) and girls (p=.021) PA levels were higher if their whole family were members of any sport club. However, family structure was not related to PA levels in either boys (p=.648) or girls (p=.132). In boys, the bi-variate regression analysis showed a positive correlation with mother’s educational level (r=.090), with the number of children in the family (r=.150), with the child’s attitude that active commute to school is attractive (r=.108) and that child’s peers actively commute to school (r=.129), whereas a negative correlation was obtained with fear the child would become a victim of violence or harassment on the way to school (r=-.097). In girls, bi-variate regression analysis showed a positive correlation with mother’s educational level (r=.094), with the child’s attitude that active commute to school is attractive (r=.092) and that child’s peers actively commute to school (r=.221), whereas a negative correlation was established with fear the child would become a victim of violence or harassment on the way to school (r=-.061) or at recreational and sporting facilities (r=-.046). According to low correlations in bi-variate analysis, we conclude that other factors, such as, for example, physical environment, might be strongly related to physical activity levels in children and need to be taken into account when preparing interventions for physical activity enhancement.

Full textAbstract:
In general, dentoalveolar fractures are a common injury seen in emergency departments, dental offices, and oral and maxillofacial surgery practices. These injuries can be the result of direct trauma or indirect trauma. Direct trauma more often causes trauma to the maxillary dentition due to the exposure of the maxillary anterior teeth. Indirect trauma is usually the result of forced occlusion secondary to a blow to the chin or from a whiplash injury. Falls are the most common mechanism of injury seen in the pediatric group. In adolescents, many of these fractures are sustained during sporting activities. However, the use of mouth guards and other protective equipment has decreased this number. Most adult injuries are caused by motor vehicle accidents, contact sports, falls, bicycles, interpersonal violence, medical/dental mishaps, and industrial accidents. Early intervention to reduce and stabilize the fracture is required to establish a bony union and ensure correct function. Most dentoalveolar fractures have bilateral stable adjacent dentition and are treated with a closed technique utilizing an acid-etch/resin splint followed by splint removal at 4 weeks. Other inferior stabilization treatments used are arch bars and other wiring techniques. It is widely accepted that semirigid stabilization techniques, such as an acid-etch/resin splint or wiring procedures, are adequate to treat dentoalveolar fractures. This is in contrast to the treatment of mandible fractures where AO principles of rigid fixation are often followed. Fractures that are unable to be reduced sometimes necessitate an open reduction followed by internal fixation, sometimes using a secondary splint for mobile teeth. In those rare cases when there are not stable adjacent teeth bilaterally other modalities must be considered. In the present report, two cases are presented where circummandibular wires were used to treat fractured mandibular dentoalveolar segments adjacent to edentulous areas.

Lo sport, espressione di valori come la lealtà e la correttezza, il rispetto delle regole, l’integrazione, la democrazia, è una forma di manifestazione della personalità umana, finalizzata, anche attraverso il tempo libero, al miglioramento del benessere psicofisico del singolo e della collettività.
Tuttavia e paradossalmente talvolta esso può risolversi nell’uso della violenza e/o in un contrasto fisico tra gli atleti, contemplato in alcuni casi dai regolamenti sportivi.
Come si giunge a valutare meritevoli le attività sportive nel quadro dei diritti fondamentali della persona costituzionalmente garantiti?
Il lavoro si propone di analizzare i rapporti tra diritto allo sport e diritto all’integrità fisica attraverso una rilettura della teoria giurisprudenziale del rischio consentito, giungendo alla conclusione che nel bilanciamento di interessi di pari rango costituzionale, l’organizzatore di competizioni sportive rivesta una fondamentale posizione di garanzia e che occorre modulare l’applicazione della clausola del rischio consentito in ragione delle circostanze del caso concreto e della qualità del soggetto e del carattere amatoriale od agonistico dell’attività.

La violence qui jadis évoquait l’horreur s’est au fil des ans développée une facette récréative et s’est infiltrée progressivement dans le domaine du sport qui compte pour une partie importante des activités de loisir. La société canadienne n’a malheureusement pas échappé à ce phénomène. Le hockey, ce sport adulé des Canadiens, offre un exemple regrettable d’infiltration de la violence récréative, violence à la fois néfaste, pernicieuse et prompte à l’escalade. À cause de l’ampleur du phénomène et des coûts sociaux qui en découlent, une prise de conscience individuelle et collective apparaît comme un véritable prérequis à l’adoption de mesures correctives efficaces. Les moyens traditionnels de contrôle et de prévention tels le droit sportif, le droit civil et le droit pénal n’ont pas produit les résultats escomptés et, de toute façon, ne sont destinés à servir que des fins précises et limitées. La province de Québec a innové en créant une Régie de la sécurité dans les sports. Cet organisme public indépendant s’est vu conféré des fonctions conseil, d’assistance, d’éducation, de contrôle, d’information ainsi que d’analyse et recherche. À ces fins la Régie a été dotée de pouvoirs d’inspection des centres sportifs et de l’équipement utilisé, d’émission de permis aux promoteurs d’activités sportives, d’adoption et d’approbation de règlements de sécurité tant pour les spectateurs que les participants et de pouvoirs d’enquête sur toute situation qui risque de mettre en danger la sécurité des personnes lors de la pratique d’un sport. Après un début lent dû à la phase laborieuse d’implantation administrative et de pénétration du milieu, la Régie s’est impliquée auprès de la population et du réseau scolaire par des campagnes publicitaires et d’information visant à promouvoir la sécurité et l’esprit sportif dans la pratique des sports. Elle s’est associée aux diverses fédérations sportives dans l’analyse et la révision de la réglementation applicable aux sports et aux loisirs afin de prévenir les accidents. L’action concertée de la Régie et des intervenants des milieux sportifs et récréatifs ont contribué grandement à la « responsabilisation » individuelle et collective en cours et devrait, à moyen et à long terme, permettre au sport de revenir à son but principal, c’est-à-dire favoriser le développement harmonieux du corps et de l’esprit ainsi que la recherche d’un équilibre entre ces deux composantes humaines ou mieux encore, selon l’idéal rêvé de de Coubertin, apporter le calme, la philosophie, la santé et la beauté.

Comment analyser les relations déviantes potentiellement violentes ou discriminatoires dans le spectacle sportif au stade? Since ten years, we are witnessing a globalization and diversification of the sport event consumption as well as stadiums dedicated to their event or retransmission. Social contexts associated with this consumption have also become places of constructions and expressions of identity that arise from belonging to groups more or less organized. Although, this situation is not unique, it seems to have assumed considerable proportions in some European countries and in some sports with the emergence of violence (symbolic, verbal, physical) and discrimination (area, race, gender). However, these emergence of deviance seem linked to fans called "traditional" (mainly football) and viewers of a new genre that does not necessarily move to the stadium to support and encourage a team. Faced with these changing phenomena of deviance, based on the work on hooliganism, we wish to propose an innovative framework to study relationships between groups of spectators who travel to these stadiums and can potentially lead to reactions violent or discriminatory. Deriving the communication situation model of Brown and Fraser (1979), this framework allows the study of deviant behaviors, so viewers who sign in a scene that has its frame: "the available spaces in stands", his time "playing time", its observers: "the media and security forces", its goals: "to entertain or support a team or an athlete" and its participants: "individuals or groups interact". This framework can also consider options for a more ethical and responsible consumption of sports entertainment.

Nella sentenza in esame, il Tribunale di Bologna individua alcuni principi particolarmente interessanti per quanto riguarda la responsabilità civile nell'ambito delle competizioni sportive (settore questo caratterizzato da un'articolata normativa). Nel caso di specie, durante una partita dilettantistica di rugby, un giocatore colpisce volontariamente con un violento calcio uno degli avversari fuori dalla fase attiva del gioco. A seguito del procedimento l'obbligo di risarcimento non è gravato esclusivamente sul responsabile materiale del fatto (l'atleta), data l'assenza di un collegamento funzionale tra la condotta e il gioco praticato, ma anche sulla società sportiva dilettantistica dell'atleta. Con riferimento a tale ultimo aspetto, il Tribunale sottolinea come il potere di gestione e vigilanza della società sportiva dilettantistica sugli affiliati ed i benefici che la società sportiva trae dalle prestazioni degli atleti debbano portare alla possibilità di stabilire una responsabilità extracontrattuale in capo a quest'ultima di cui all'art. 2049 c.c. Infatti, dopo l'analisi delle posizioni dottrinali e giurisprudenziali in tema di responsabilità dei maestri e degli appaltatori, il Giudice condanna in solido la società sportiva dilettantistica e gli atleti al risarcimento del danno derivante dall'illecito commesso dall'atleta nei confronti dell'avversario, anche se l'atto illecito è stato commesso al di fuori di una fase di gioco attiva ed è stato commesso intenzionalmente, perché tale circostanza non è ritenuta sufficiente a interrompere il nesso diretto di causalità, non essendo una condotta totalmente estranea al rapporto tra le parti
