Dr Simon Rofe discusses his recently published book: 'Sport and Diplomacy: Games within Games', (Manchester: Manchester University Press / USA Oxford University Press 2018) as the culmination of the first phase of research in Sport and Diplomacy spanning the years 2012-2018. The book critically enhances the appreciation of sport and diplomacy in global affairs from the perspective of both practitioners and scholars. It draws on a range of scholarship across the fields of history, politics, sociology and international relations, exploring linkages across these fields in relation to soft power and public diplomacy.
