The sport stadiums as social barometers
The societal impact of sport extends far beyond the realm of entertainment, positioning it as a vital cultural and political institution embedded within the fabric of everyday life. Rather than functioning solely as leisure or spectacle, sport operates as a dynamic arena where collective identities are forged, contested, and reimagined. Through the shared rituals of athletic performance and spectatorship, sports arenas emerge as charged public sp…

Psychological Dimensions of Physical Activity, Sport, and Technology
The current collection elucidates the complex and dualistic intersection of sport psychology, physical activity, and advanced technology (including wearables, exergames, and artificial intelligence). While performance is recognized as an emergent, context-sensitive phenomenon, its assessment and introspective experience are critically recalibrated by ubiquitous digital instrumentation. Initial contributions delineate technology’s role as a precis…
Decoding Smartwatch Use and Health Behaviors
The rise of wearable technology, especially smart sport watches (SSWs), has revolutionized how individuals track and improve their health and fitness. These devices provide not only real-time biometric data but also enhance the motivation for physical activity by integrating social and personal health goals. This review examines the work of Tenenbaum et al. (2025) on the psychological factors influencing SSW use, particularly focusing on technolo…
Beyond the Goalposts
Qatar has utilized soft power to amplify its global influence through cultural diplomacy, media, and sports. Al-Jazeera and events like the 2022 FIFA World Cup have positioned Qatar as a modern, forward-thinking state despite controversies over labor rights, LGBTQ+ policies, and alleged ties to extremist groups. These contradictions challenge its soft power credibility, as efforts to project modernity often clash with conservative domestic polici…

Balancing national solidarity and journalistic independence in the social media era
This commentary explores the rally-around-the-flag effect in Israeli journalism during the 2024 Gaza war, where heightened national solidarity has shaped media coverage. Historically, Israeli media has aligned with government narratives during conflicts, fostering unity while curbing dissent. In 2024, this phenomenon has intensified due to Hamas’s October 7th attacks, ongoing rocket fire and a polarized political landscape. Journalists grapple wi…

Analyzing AI Bias
Sporting events have been the target of terrorist groups for decades due to their high profile. Since 9/11, a bias against Muslims has been evident in both traditional and social media with Muslims being depicted as likely perpetrators of attacks against sporting events. The 2024 Paris Olympics represents the first major sporting events in the age of generative artificial intelligence (AI) platforms. This study is the first to examine to what ext…
The 21st Century Globetrotters' Fans
In the modern era of commercialized, mediated, and global football, there is a decline in the importance of the local aspect of sports fandom. Nowadays, through television broadcasts, the Internet, and especially social networks, a fan continuously follows elite football clubs from around the world, which provide an alternative to local clubs. This has created a growing trend of football fan communities known as "transnational fans"-fans of sport…

Ultra-orthodox representations in Israeli radio satire
The growing power of the media to define social values and perceptions is a conspicuous feature of contemporary life. Radio is one such shaper of social reality perceptions. While much of the media research focuses on secular organisations operating in a Western, liberal context, not much attention has been paid to this tension between religion and modernity within media outlets. This article examines representations of Israel’s Jewish ultra-orth…
We can only trust ourselves’
This article contextualises the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre as an important factor in the advent of state counterterrorism strategy aimed at foreclosing the next terrorist outrage. While Mossad’s Operation Wrath of God failed to trace all culprits of the massacre, it nevertheless killed its mastermind Ali Hassan Salameh alongside scores of key PLO terrorists. This led to the effective demise of Palestinian terrorism in Europe and its return to …

The annual music charts
Radio is a cultural producer and a main player in the music industry. Radio operates a system that determines which music will be broadcast and which music will not make it ‘on the air,’ functioning as gatekeeper for the general audience. Such a system gives radio significant influence on the music to which listeners are exposed. By way of offering a comprehensive picture of the diverse tastes, styles and trends of popular music in Israel, this a…

The article also traces the shift from party pol…
Older than the state
In May 1929, the Israel Football association was officially recognised by international sport organisations, after extensive political efforts. International recognition effectively institutionalised Israel’s popular sport,1 which would eventually become not only the focus of massive interest but also a major actor in the social, economic, and political spheres of Israeli society

The (Re)Shaping of the Israeli Sport Media
From its explosive development in the last decade of the 20th century, the World Wide Web has become an ideal medium for dedicated sports fanatics and a useful resource for casual fans, as well. Its accessibility, interactivity, speed, and multimedia content have triggered a fundamental change in the delivery of mediated sports, a change for which no one can yet predict the outcome (Real, 2006). This commentary sheds light on a process in which t…

A comparison is made between events that are canceled and events that take place as planned despite the attack or threat. Our findings indicate no signific…
From Munich to Boston, and from Theater to Social Media
Modern terrorist attacks are usually characterized by intentionally extreme public displays of massive violence to get wide propagation, courtesy of the media. This article uses large-scale, world sporting events, from the 1972 Munich massacre to the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing to document and analyze how terror acts grew and acclimatized into a reality in which the symbiotic, massive linkage between two gigantic entities—sports and the media—al…
When the Medium Becomes “Well Done”
One of the fundamental issues in the relation between television and sports has been the transference from watching a game or a sport in the field (the stadium) to the viewing experience through a proxy (the medium). The present article argues that sport broadcasts on television in the twenty-first century do not merely provide a sophisticated view of what takes place at the stadium but a new creation with unique characteristics. By using the lat…

Here's Hoping We Get Pummeled
This study discusses changes in football fans' perception of nationalism in recent years. A growing number of athletes, fans, and sports teams have been explicitly prioritizing their own particular individual interests over national ones. National football teams nowadays enjoy far less support from their fans, whose allegiances are often multiple and who, at times, even reject their own national team. Globalization and the rise of social networks…

From functional to mythical
This article seeks to analyse and portray the mythologisation of sport venues in Israel through a close examination of the particular case study of Ussishkin basketball arena in Tel Aviv. Notwithstanding the current lack of Israeli mainstream recognition of sport places as a built cultural heritage, it is argued that the Ussishkin arena demonstrates the extensive social implication carried by those seemingly functional facilities, not exclusively…
The Boston Game and the Isis Match
The world is becoming largely interconnected. This notion has thought-provoking implications due to the fact that this interdependence affords terrorist organizations opportunities to perpetrate attacks. It is inevitable that an increased risk of terrorism, especially on the forefront of megasporting events, is on the rise due to the global publicity such attacks receive. This article focuses on the Boston Marathon Bombing and the Islamic State a…

Just for Sport!? Sport, Gambling and Politics in Israel
By adopting a developmental approach, this essay describes and analyses the key processes that led to the establishment and institutionalization of sports gambling in Israel.

Cultural Imperialism and Sport
There is much debate in the literature about the relationship between Americanization and globalization. It is not our intention here to get embroiled in that debate. Rather, we intend to use the example of Israeli basketball to suggest that, in this instance, the term Americanization is more suitable for explaining developments in that sport than the more general term ‘globalization’. Israel and America enjoy a very close and interdependent rela…
Sport and politics in Palestine, 1918–48
The period reviewed in this article (1918–48) is divided into different sub-periods, each characterized by changes relating to the political reality in the Palestine and a specific set of sporting relations that grew out of these broader circumstances. It is argued that football in Palestine constituted a kind of mirror, or a litmus test, for diagnosing the psychological climate of Jewish and British relations: in times of security and rest norma…

Israel’s basketball achievements have been substantial: in 1977, 1981 and 2001 Maccabi Tel Aviv won the European Club Championship, while in 1979 the Israeli national team finished as runners-up to the Soviet Union in the European National Championship. Nonetheless, Israeli basketball is a unique case: it is located geographically in Asia, competes in the European arena, and is dominated by imported American players. 1 Clearly, the game has come …

Municipal subsidiary policy toward professional sports teams
Purpose Local authorities around the world provide different forms and different amounts of direct and/or indirect assistance to professional sport teams, which in most cases are owned by private business entrepreneurs.
