Synopsis

This book offers different insights into the study of the Olympic movement in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

It seeks to capture how political and cultural nation-state building and economic transformations are impacting the region's engagement (and disengagement) with the Olympic movement and the Olympic Games, as well as Paralympic sports.

This book was originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of the History of Sport.
