Restart : sport after the Covid-19 time out / ed. by Jörg Krieger... [et al.]
Edited by Common Ground Research Networks - 2022
In the edited collection "Restart: sport after the Covid-19 time out", practitioners and international scholars explore the “restart” of sport and fitness following the initial period of lockdowns during spring 2020. The chapters provide insight into the sport and fitness landscape following the initial wave of the pandemic. The book focuses on challenges for sport providers, consequences for sporting participants, and opportunities for new ways of practicing sports. It contributes contemporaneous data, analyses, and insights into the global sport landscape that has been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. This book presents a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives in a total of nineteen individual chapters, organized around five main parts. The second part "The Olympic Movement" consists of an assessment of the challenges for the Olympic Movement in a post-pandemic world, around the postponement of the 2020 Summer Olympic Games to 2021 and themes such as climate change or the Olympic Values Education Programme (OVEP).
