Grenseløs idrett: Studier av risiko, spenning og makt i norsk idrett
0 Ungluers have Faved this Work
Sport Unlimited takes you to the front lines where sport is pushing physical, technological and ethical boundaries. What happens when winters are becoming warmer and the snow melts under skis, when artificial intelligence analyzes athletes' performances in real time, or when video refereeing overrules the referee on the field? What are the costs of a sport that knows no boundaries? The contributors to this anthology show how shifting boundaries affect athletes, managers and organizations in sports. The book contains empirical studies of issues ranging from technological innovation in elite sport and power plays within international sporting events, to risk and sportisation in nature-based sports. Readers will also find critical analyses demonstrating how sport mirrors and motivates social change through technological advances and institutional shifts. This book will be relevant for students, researchers, coaches and leaders seeking to delve into sport’s role in an era of rapid change and increasing complexity. Sport Unlimited provides knowledge and asks the questions necessary for an informed and nuanced discussion of the future of sport.
