New Dimensions of Sport in Modern Europe offers new perspectives on European sport history in the ‘long twentieth century’ designed to challenge and deconstruct what might be considered ‘traditional’ or more familiar Euro-centric conceptions and geographies of sport and leisure—especially those deriving from the leading hotbeds of European sport history. This anthology adds to the growing corpus of explorations of sport and leisure in late-modern European history from a variety of countries: France, Spain, Finland, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Slovenia. With topics covering several different sports and ranging from sport during empire to mega-events, and sport literature to women’s sport attire, the insights provided by this new body of research demonstrate a greater understanding of the connections between sport and society in Europe throughout the long twentieth century. This book was originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of the History of Sport.

This is the first book in English to offer an overview of the development of the sport industry in Spain and Portugal, examining the social, economic, cultural, and political impact sport has had in this region and on world sport more broadly. Drawing on sources in Spanish and Portuguese, the book presents important new perspectives and empirical material not previously available to English-speaking audiences. With a strong focus on management, development, economics, governance and law, set in a broader historical and socio-cultural context, the book explains the unique characteristics of the sport industry in the Iberian Peninsula. It takes a deep dive into Spanish and Portuguese football - in many ways the centre of gravity of Iberian sport – and into sport tourism, a hugely significant component of the broader economy of the region. The book also considers important emerging themes in Iberian sport, from the development of women’s sport to the global profile of Cristiano Ronaldo and Rafael Nadal, and considers the wider influence of Iberian sport across the wider Hispanic diaspora. This is fascinating and illuminating reading for anybody with an interest in sport business and management, global sporting cultures, international business, or Hispanic or Latin American studies.

This volume brings together current academic research and knowledge on the economics and management of professional road cycling. Each chapter treats a particular economic aspect of the sport, from organizational structure to marketing, finance, media coverage, labor, strategic behavior, and competitive balance. By discussing the existing research and complementing it with the newest concepts, ideas and data on professional road cycling, this book sets an agenda for further academic research while providing insights for all stakeholders in cycling: governments, cycling's governing bodies, team managers, race organizers, sponsors, media. Furthermore, the unique characteristics of the sport of cycling explored within this text inform broader management and industrial organization research, as they extend analyses of team labor, broadcast revenue generation, and sponsorship financing models. Revised and updated for the second edition, this volume includes new chapters on women’s professional road cycling, the economic impact of hosting major cycling events, and the willingness to pay for professional road cycling events. This book is equally of interest to academic researchers, students studying sports economics, and policy makers, such as race organizers, team managers, and sponsors.

This book deals with the events leading up to the 1936 Popular Olympics which would have united the Popular Front in opposition to the Berlin Olympics. It also discusses the days after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War which began on the same day the games were due to start. Using a variety of primary and secondary sources, the book traces the biographies of several Popular Olympians who would go on to volunteer in the Spanish Civil War. The book also examines the planned events and locations for the Popular Olympics as well as the international funding that the games secured. The book argues that the events were a departure from Workers’ Sport as well as the IOC’s Olympic games and represented an important cultural manifestation of the Popular Front.

La biografía del ganador de las dos primeras ediciones de la Vuelta a España, el belga Gustaaf Deloor, nos trae la historia de los comienzos de la gran vuelta española. Pese a la importancia de su gesta, Gustavo, como le llamaba la prensa local de la época, no llegó nunca a ser un corredor muy conocido y mucho menos reconocido. El periodista especializado en ciclismo Juanfran de la Cruz ganó el II Certamen de literatura ciclista "Un libro en ruta" con este libro. Gustaaf Deloor. Un nombre imprescindible para entender la historia de la Vuelta a España. Fue el vencedor de las dos primeras ediciones de la Vuelta, en 1935 y 1936. El ciclista belga es, sin embargo, un completo desconocido para la mayoría. Compitió junto a su hermano Alfons en las más grandes pruebas ciclistas europeas, aunque era la ronda española su preferida: "¿Cómo no amar a la Vuelta a España, a esta vuelta, a un país, cuando además, he sido objetivo de tan emocionadoras demostraciones por parte de su público hidalgo y caballero". Truncada su carrera deportiva por la Guerra Civil española y la II Guerra Mundial, Gustavo (como le llamaba la prensa española de la época) rehizo su vida como mecánico en Estados Unidos, llegando a trabajar en el proyecto Apolo que llevaría la primera misión tripulada a la luna. El periodista Juanfran de la Cruz, tras una larga investigación y tirando de hemeroteca y entrevistas personales con familiares y amigos que conocieron personalmente a Gustaaf Deloor, recoge en este libro todos los vaivenes de la vida del gran campeón belga.

Una pulga en la montaña no es una biografía al uso. Escrita por Marcos Pereda, autor de los libros Arriva Italia y Periquismo. Crónica de una pasión, se trata de una obra de narrativa inspirada en la figura del gran ciclista Vicente Trueba. "La Pulga de Torrelavega", como se conocía al corredor cántabro, fue el primer Rey de la Montaña de la historia del Tour de Francia (en 1933) y uno de los pioneros españoles en demostrar su valía más allá de los Pirineos. A partir de una coral de voces ficticias, el libro repasa diferentes momentos de la vida de Vicente Trueba. Un vecino, un periodista francés, un esprínter italiano o un compañero de milicias durante la guerra civil... todos ellos sirven para ir componiendo un discurso polifónico en el que las historias sobre la Pulga se mezclan con otros aspectos del ciclismo y la sociedad en los tiempos heroicos. Un libro para conocer cómo vivían, entrenaban, competían y sentían los miembros de la caravana ciclista en los años treinta del siglo pasado. Obra premiada con un accésit en el II Certamen de literatura ciclista "Un libro en ruta".

From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.

A young woman encounters strange events in her Mexican hometown in this novel by an author who “immerses us...in her wickedly funny and imaginative world” (Latina). Leaving Tabasco tells of the coming of age of Delmira Ulloa, raised in an all-female home in Agustini, in the Mexican province of Tabasco. In Agustini it is not unusual to see your grandmother float above the bed when she sleeps, or to purchase torrential rains at a traveling fair, or to watch your family’s elderly serving woman develop stigmata, then disappear completely, to be canonized as a local saint. But as Delmira becomes a woman, she will set out on a search for her missing father, and must make a choice that could mean leaving her home forever, in a tale filled with both depth and delightful mystery that poses questions about just how real the real world is. “To flee Agustini is to leave not just a town but the viscerally primal dreamscape it represents.”— The New York Times Book Review “Vibrant...Each chapter is an adventure.”—The Boston Globe “We happily share with [Delmira] her life, including the infinitely charming town she inhabits [and] her grandmother’s fantastic imagination.”—The Washington Post Book World
