Notas: | "If I had to do it over again, I would give this book a different title: A School for Democracy: Sport and Democratization in the Ancient and Modern Worlds ... the reader should be aware that this is a book about democratization rather than democracy, an important distinction that is discussed in detail in the text that follows."--A Note on the Title |
