Time and sport
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Sport is one of the instruments that modern societies
use to fill time with meaning. The characteristics of the sportive time –quantification, transitoriety, concentration, limitation, sacrality, collective identification, mythicalism and cyclic repetition- link with a neoliberal and posmodern ideology that pretends to calm the human anxiety that comes from the emptyness left by metastory‘s crisis and in front of which is necessary to apply for a critical and humanizer look.
