- W2215642529 abstract "��� This paper distills the many forms or expressions of nationalism associated with the Olympic Games into four historical themes: the Olympic athlete, or team, as a tangible representation of the nation incarnate; the symbolic value of victories and medals; the diplomatic significance of recognition in the International Olympic Committee; and the political currency of hosting an Olympic festival. T he 1906 Olympic Games in Athens marked the site of one of the earliest political demonstrations in modern sports history. During the medal ceremony for the long jump competition, Peter O’Connor, a native of Waterford, Ireland, celebrated his second place finish for the British team by climbing the flagpole that bore the Union Jack. 1 An impassioned O’Connor unfurled a large green Irish standard embroidered with the words Erin Go Bragh (Ireland Forever), the popular maxim of the Irish Home Rule movement. The Irish athlete clung to the top of the pole for a considerable time, vigorously waving his replacement banner. O’Connor’s actions represented an act of political resistance and a nationalistic demonstration that aimed to draw the world’s attention towards Ireland’s claims for emancipation from Britain. 2 Over one hundred years have passed since that incident. In this time, the Olympics have expanded in size, commercial power, and international prestige. Yet the festival remains a magnet for nationalist politics and propaganda. After all, the symbols, credentials, and protocol associated with the festival are all politically charged. During the Olympic Games, countries display national anthems, colors, and flags as cultural artifacts, in effect reinforcing similarities and accentuating differences between teams and representatives. In fact, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Dr. Matthew P. Llewellyn earned a PhD in the historical and philosophical aspects of sport and physical activity at Pennsylvania State University. He is currently an associate professor of Kinesiology at the California State University, Fullerton; co-director of the Centre for the Socio-Cultural Sport and Olympic Research; associate editor of the Journal of Sport History; and the author of numerous books and journal articles on the history of sport.
