Abstract
In a time in which there is a strong growth of populist parties and identity movements asking for protection of Christian and Western values, an apparently “neutral” theme such as sport is also affected by these issues. As regards the European context, sport is considered by scholars and advisor as an element that can promote immigrants and ethnic minority integration. However this approach does not take into account the vision of "Others”, and in the case-study here considered of the Islamic point of view, to which refer many Muslims in E.U (25 million people, and about ¼ less than 18 years).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
