ABSTRACT

Contemporary sport appears to have gone beyond the visible decrease in technically tolerated violence according to the rules, even beyond the very stretched and flexible limits of the specific tolerance threshold of the sporting space for violence. Renewed forms of techniques, including/inducing changes in the game and the development of planned violence ensure victory. Sport as a model of technical ultra-specialisation produces the actors, which create it and it becomes in a certain manner an end in itself in the 'dromosphere' marked by the power of technology and of speed. Sport violence is well established in the technology of progress as it symmetrically produces the reverse: technical domination, which controls the system and controls the man who produces it. Sport technique permits a simultaneous control of movement and the deployment of ideal efficacy. As Norbert Elias suggests, sport technique leads to a simple equation: to generate the maximum effectiveness with the minimum cost.
