ABSTRACT
Under an overarching theoretical model, this chapter considers the four projects described previously as a whole research programme on forced migration and sport. New knowledge will emerge by comparing and contrasting the individual projects. To consider the projects introduced and examined previously as a whole, the first step is to find similarities and differences between the four projects against the backdrop of Luhmann's typology of systems. Particular affinities were found between two pairs of projects: both Sport and Forced Migration in the Mass Media and Forced Migration and Elite Sport examine society and the topic of elite sport. Activities for Refugees in Sports Clubs and Physical Activity in Refugee Sites, on the other hand, study sport offers provided for refugees in different organisational settings. The following paragraphs address these two project couples as the first step of a progressive overarching consideration of this research by focusing on external and self-representations and on organisational logics.
