Sport sometimes was called „religion of the 20. th century.“.After modern sport was established in Central Europe it became a mass movement, in the inter-war-period also an important political factor. In the cold war-era it played an important role in the conflict between East and West and became more and more also an economical factor. This commercial aspect is nowadays even stronger and recent developments show also in the 21st century sport can be used as a massive means of propaganda. We will focus mainly on the social, political und economic role of Sport in Central Europe. The lectures will be held in English, but we can discuss also in Czech.
