The History of Motor Sport
This book explores, analyses, and explains the significance of motor sport in a number of selected countries throughout the world, to provide a focus on its numerous disciplines and outline how each of these varies in popularity from country to country. In so doing, this volume arrives at a more informed understanding of the role of motor sport in ideological and sporting terms and thereby contributes to the increasing momentum of academic research in this field. When examining sport, its meanings, and significance in society, the accent is often on individuals and teams that represent a nation or a particular ideological standpoint. Rarely does attention turn to other sporting forms and yet it is here that a remarkable story is revealed.
This collection represents the first occasion ever when the full extent of the impact of motor sport on certain countries is thoughtfully considered. It tracks its evolution out from its conception in central Europe, into the southern part of the continent and onwards throughout the Americas.
This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.
David Hassan is a Senior Lecturer in Sport Studies at the University of Ulster. He is Academic Editor of Sport in Society (Taylor & Francis Ltd.) and has guest edited a number of leading journals in the field. He is Series Editor (with Dr. Allan Edwards) of Foundations of Sport Management (a new Routledge series) and has published extensively in the social, political and historical significance of sport.

On January 1, 2010 Sport in the Global Society, created by Professor J.A. Mangan in 1997, was divided into two parts: Historical Perspectives and Contemporary Perspectives. These new categories involve predominant rather than exclusive emphases. The past is part of the present and the present is part of the past. The Editors of Historical Perspectives are Mark Dyreson and Thierry Terret.
The reasons for the division are straightforward. SGS has expanded rapidly since its creation with over one hundred publications in some twelve years. Its editorial teams will now benefit from sectional specialist interests and expertise. Historical Perspectives draws on IJHS monograph reviews, themed collections and conference/workshop collections. It is, of course, international in content.
Historical Perspectives continues the tradition established by the original incarnation of Sport in the Global Society by promoting the academic study of one of the most significant and dynamic forces in shaping the historical landscapes of human cultures. Sport spans the contemporary globe. It captivates vast audiences. It defines, alters, and reinforces identities for individuals, communities, nations, empires, and the world. Sport organizes memories and perceptions, arouses passions and tensions, and reveals harmonies and cleavages. It builds and blurs social boundaries, animating discourses about class, gender, race, and ethnicity. Sport opens new vistas on the history of human cultures, intersecting with politics and economics, ideologies and theologies. It reveals aesthetic tastes and energizes consumer markets.
By the end of the twentieth century a critical mass of scholars recognized the importance of sport in their analyses of human experiences and Sport in the Global Society emerged to provide an international outlet for the worlds leading investigators of the subject. As Professor Mangan contended in the original series foreword: The story of modern sport is the story of the modern worldin microcosm; a modern global tapestry permanently being woven. Furthermore, nationalist and imperialist, philosopher and politician, radical and conservative have all sought in sport a manifestation of national identity, status and superiority. Finally for countless millions sport is the personal pursuit of ambition, assertion, well-being and enjoyment.
Sport in the Global Society: Historical Perspectives continues the project, building on previous work in the serious and excavating new terrain. It remains a consistent and coherent response to the attention the academic community demands for the serious study of sport.
