Opis

I love the Olympics. Summer or Winter, it doesn't matter. On the sports field, all are created equal, and depend only on their skills for victory. "The Olympics, more than any other sporting event, lay bare the political manifestations of athletics, and how important sports can be for economics," Cohan says. "You march with your flag and stand before your national anthem. World leaders are in attendance, and countries, which maybe can't afford them, invest billions of dollars in building stadiums and marketing their country." Cohan says that the national pride this creates unites a country's Olympic athletes under an "umbrella of nationalism."
