Holding Up More Than Half the Asian Sky
Glittering Guangzhou’
The Guangzhou Asian Games of 2010 was the deliberate outcome of an intense regional rivalry, a careful national balancing act and a geopolitical marketing momentum embedded in a provincial and civil reconstruction that mirrored a wider national reconstruction: Guangdong and Guangzhou – ‘the city’, the Games City and Chinese performances were statements about the controlled advance of the ‘Middle Kingdom’ to a regained hegemonic status in the west…
The Beijing Games, National Identity and Modernization in China
Modern Olympics have always been about national prestige. The 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing was a good illustration. The unprecedented support level to the Beijing Games from the government to the public reflects the sense of national identity which is motivated by the memories of past grandeur and humiliation and the keenness to build a new, vigorous, modern and strong nation in the world. Through examining Beijing's two Olympic bids, constructi…

Beijing Olympics Legacies
What are the intended legacies of Beijing 2008 and what could be the consequences both intended and unintended? These are the questions that intrigue people both in China and around the world. This brief discussion, inter alia in a review, partially, but not exclusively, of the stated Beijing Organizing Committee of the Olympics Games (BOCOG) policies, their implementation and their putative possibilities for Chinese and the global society, seeks…

His intelligence, his attention to detail, his sympathy for my subject, his long hours of patient assistance, have ensured the completion of this thesis.

His sound advice, his careful thoroughness and his constant support too can never be forgotten.’ I remain deeply…
Ascending then Descending? Women's Soccer in Modern China
Chinese history had and has its heroines! By way of example, in the late nineteenth century the Dowager Empress Tzu-Hsi (1835-1907) of the late Qing Dynasty, and in the late twentieth century Sun Wen, the FIFA's World Number One Woman Soccer Player. They illustrate respectively past and present femininity, past and present institutional values and are indicative of dramatic changes in gender perceptions, expectations and images in some 100 years.…

Football in the New China
It is not well-known world-wide but football has now become the most popular sport in China, despite the prominence in the world's media of Chinese athletes, swimmers and gymnasts. As yet, however, the performance of China's men's football team has failed to impress. As recently as 1998 the national team ranked only 51st in the world. There are various articles dealing with the reasons for such an unsatisfactory state of affairs,1 but there is a …
The Female Dragons Awake
This article, based on archival records, published documents, interviews with elite sportswomen and three regional case studies, deals with the radical social, economic, cultural and political changes in the early years of the Communist China, the consequent changes in women's lives and the eventual extraordinary impact on elite women's sport. It analyses the complicated relations between the communist system, gender ideology, sports policy, inte…
