An innovative work in the history of Olympic politics--Review of Power, Politics and the Olympic Games Written by Alfreid Senn

For the first time Power, Politics and the Olympic Games written by Alfreid Senn observes Olympic political events from the perspective of realistic philosophy in between international political conflicts and national interest disputes by using the writing style for a specialized history, starting innovatively at the core concepts of power and politics. This book also profoundly dissects such political topics as the fight between International Olympic Committee (IOC) and multiple political powers, gaming between IOC and respective governmental powers, as well as athlete's general heroism worship and special national hero complex.
