Summary of Sport Empire by Allan Edwards PDF

Edwards and Skinner provide us with a new theoretical framework to analyse sport in the global context. Drawing on Hardt and Negri's concept of Empire (2000) they provide us with insight into a new form of the globalisation process and its modern manifestation in the form of Sport Empire. Particular attention is given to the role of Nation-States and the United Nations. The various forms of biopolitical control that exist in Sport Empire are illustrated through a focus on the IOC and FIFA. Issues such as Corruption in Sport, Transnational Media Conglomerates, Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, Multiculturalism and Diversity Management, Humanitarian projects, Environmental and Health Challenges, Terrorism, and the role of the Multitude in producing a new global posthegemonic sport order are raised.
