Sport under Unexpected Circumstances

Violence, Discipline, and Leisure in Penal and Internment Camps. Edited by Gregor Feindt, Anke Hilbrenner, and Dittmar Dahlmann. Sport was an integral part of life in camps during the twentieth century, even in Nazi concentrations camps or in the Soviet Gulag. Traditionally perceived as a symbol of equality, play, and peacefulness, sport under such unexpected circumstances irritates most observers, back then and today. This volume studies the irritating fact of sport in penal and internment camps as an important insight into the history of camps. With contributions by Alan Kramer, Floris J. G. van der Merwe, Panikos Panayi et al. 283 Seiten mit 12 Abb., gebunden (Veröffentlichungen des Instituts für Europäische Geschichte Mainz.
