However, for this particular volume, a global call for papers was issued to gather a wide range of scholarly perspectives on the topic. The goal was to approach the subject from diverse angles and broaden the horizons of understanding. Consequently, this book brings together a diverse array of scholarly analyses aimed at unraveling the evolution of recognizing the voices of athletes across decades. At its core, the structure of the chapters in this book revolves around three key perspectives: the lives and biographical profiles of athletes; the decision-making processes and experiences of athletes; and the formal and informal institutional representations of athletes. While the primary focus lies in the voices of athletes associated with Olympic-related sports, attention is also given to the actions and opinions of athletes expressed in various other sporting contexts. This book originated as a special issue of The International Journal of the History of Sport, a renowned publication in the field of sports history and studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 485g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032389226\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103874969850,"sku":"9781032389226","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_6fa92f8c-ed23-4d89-a26c-0d4ae8cc063a.jpg?v=1674084843","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-athletes-voice-in-history-9781032389226","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
