1968 was a year of protest in civil society (Prague, Paris, Chicago) and a year of protest in sport. Meanwhile, students in Mexico demonstrated against social priorities in Mexico, the host of the 1968 Games. This title presents the memories of activists who were 'on the ground' using sport as a site for the struggle for human rights.
From the Mexico Olympics of 1968 to the events surrounding the Olympic torch relay leading up to Beijing 2008, sport has been a site for political and human rights struggles. This book captures the memories of important historical actors involved and presents the latest scholarly analyses of past and present these efforts.
