Popis: | After the Second World War, Africa was an issue for the Olympic movement, while few countries had National Olympic Committees (NOCs) and participated in the Olympic Games (Olympics). In addition, apart from the Mediterranean Games (1951) and the Panarabes Games (1953), part of Africa is not represented on the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and has no representative structure for sport on the continent. However, in 1960, African independence precipitated Africa’s integration into the Olympic movement. It is not just a matter of them forming their NOCs and participating in the Tokyo Olympics (1964), but of organizing an Olympic African bloc to create the First African Games (1965) and build a “world”. African sports united and independent of the IOC by the African Sport Council (1966). The objective is thus to seize Olympism as a political space of claim against apartheid. |
