Re-presenting the German Nation: Politics, Memory and Identity at the Munich Olympics

1972年慕尼黑奥运会因第一次在全球范围内通过电视转播的恐怖主义事件而被人们铭记--奥运村以色列代表队遭到袭击。这一活动使德国组织者在联邦、地区和市政府的赞助下投入的巨大努力黯然失色，这些努力是为了塑造“新德国”的积极形象。该项目涉及跳水运动员的主题，如体育场设计、与前东德的关系以及1936年柏林奥运会的遗产，该项目将提供1972年慕尼黑的第一个全面的文化-政治描述，并有助于理解体育与政治之间的复杂关系。

The Munich Olympics in 1972 are remembered for the first globally televised terrorism -the attack on the Israeli team in the Olympic Village. This event overshadowed the huge effort that the German organisers, sponsored by federal, regional and municipal governments, had invested in projecting a positive image of the 'New Germany'. Addressing divers' topics such as stadium design, relations with the former East Germany, and the legacy of the 1936 Games in Berlin, this project will provide the first full cultural-political account of Munich 1972 and contribute to an understanding of the complex relationship between sport and politics.
