		Can Olympism survive ^Votes:0 Can Olympism survive? Liselott Diem once said: ?Olympism is a great vision. It is unattainable - similar to a philosophy of life - but people need visions to strive for.? In the works of the founder of the Olympic Movement, Pierre de Coubertin, we do not find a uniform definition of ?Olympism? but very different interpretations. In 1917, he asked his readers: ?What does it mean to live up to Olympism?? The answer was quite simple: ?To be joyful.? A year later, he described the aspect more theoretically: ?Like a pencil of rays, Olympism unites all principles which help to improve mankind.? But he does not specify the principles he meant. There is good reason to ask about the chances of the Olympic Movement in the future. The so-called Games of the century of Atlanta - instead of the Festiva Read More Go to Site

A small but disciplined group known as the Ukrainian Olympic Committee (UOC) has been carrying its fight for an independent Ukrainian Olympic team to the playing fields of Montreal, much to the chagrin of the Soviet Olympic Committee. The technique is simple enough. Young men and women, each wearing a bright orange T-shirt emblazoned with a single letter of the Ukrainian alphabet, arrive singly or in pairs at the main stadium.
