Most competitive sports owe their origins to human fighting. Although they are ritualized contests, competitive sports have retained many aspects of human warfare, especially the use of strategy and tactics that moves human contest beyond military clashes to the subjugation of opponents without bloodshed. Cultural influences usually go unnoticed. Indeed, Washington often conducts foreign affairs like football games without knowing that is the case. Likewise, Beijing moves in Weiqi style subconsciously. This book uncovers these influences. David Lai, Ph.D. is currently an adjunct professor at the George Washington University, USA and previously professor at the U.S. Army and Air War Colleges respectively. 001444632 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001444632 650_0 $$aSports$$xPolitical aspects. 001444632 650_6 $$aSports$$xAspect politique. 001444632 651_0 $$aChina$$xForeign relations$$zUnited States. 001444632 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xForeign relations$$zChina. 001444632 651_6 $$aChine$$xRelations extérieures$$zÉtats-Unis. 001444632 651_6 $$aÉtats-Unis$$xRelations extérieures$$zChine. 001444632 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001444632 7001_ $$aLai, David,$$d1955-$$eeditor. 001444632 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030921999$$z9783030921996$$w(OCoLC)1281240315 001444632 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tU.S.-China strategic relations and competitive sports$$z9783030921996$$w(OCoLC)1295109958 001444632 852__ $$bebk 001444632 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-92200-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001444632 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1444632$$pGLOBAL_SET 001444632 980__ $$aBIB 001444632 980__ $$aEBOOK 001444632 982__ $$aEbook 001444632 983__ $$aOnline 001444632 994__ $$a92$$bISE
