High Performance in Elite Sports: A Cultural History of Medicine, Psychology, and Society during the Weimar Republic and Nazism, 1918-1945

长期以来，澳大利亚在欧洲历史创新研究方面享有极高的国际声誉。这一研究项目将通过向一个刚刚开始发展的新领域提供尖端研究来扩大这一声誉。该项目将体育研究与科学史和医学史研究结合在一起，使澳大利亚能够参与所有这些领域的重大国际辩论。它以德国为例考察了体育的社会和文化意义。像澳大利亚这样一个有体育意识、注重绩效的社会肯定会受益于对不同时间和地点的体育与绩效管理之间关系的洞察。

Australia has long had an excellent international reputation for innovative research on European history. This research project will expand that reputation by providing cutting-edge research into a new field that is just beginning to be developed. The project brings together research in sport with research into the history of science and medicine that will allow Australia to participate in major international debates in all of these fields. It examines the social and cultural significance of sports using Germany as a case study. A sports conscious and performance oriented society like Australia would certainly benefit from insights about the relationship between sports and performance management in a different time and place.
