"I didn't even know if my life was worth fighting for" : an exploration of the restorative power of adaptive sport for traumatically injured British military personnelGreen, S. January 2013 (has links)
This thesis examines the potentially restorative power of adaptive sport, based upon the experiences of traumatically injured British military personnel. It investigates how participation in adaptive sport may contribute to personnel’s adaptation of identity and the re-establishment of their meaning of life post-traumatic injury. Through a series of in-depth interviews, I attempted to gain a greater understanding of the experience of and recovery from life-changing injuries, seeking to comprehend the impact of adaptive sport in this process. In line with current research in the field of disability studies, this research adopted a social construction approach. The results of the analysis are set within the social model of disability in order to try to highlight the impacts of the perceptions of disability, embedded in the dominant medical model discourse, on the participant’s lives. Key findings highlighted by this research are i; the influence that the medical model discourse has on the British military mentality and their approach to injury, ii; the process of identity adaptation and the importance of adaptive-sport-participation to provide focus and help individuals realise their potential, iii; the experience of adaptive sport as a tool to bring back meaning of life and iv; the process of ‘normalisation’ and the way individuals are self-determined to restore some sense of normality by participating in adaptive sport and positive adaptation to trauma, whereby adaptive sport acts as a tool to set the right conditions for individuals to experience positive phenomena. Throughout this thesis, I have attempted to provide an open and reflexive account of the whole research process in order to make the reader aware of the possible effects of my own background on the research outcomes.

Previous issue date: 2014 / Resumo: As duas primeiras décadas do século XXI vêm reservando ao Brasil uma série de megaeventos esportivos iniciados em 2007 com os Jogos Pan-Americanos do Rio de Janeiro, seguidos da realização da V edição dos Jogos Mundiais Militares (JMM), em 2011, da Copa das Confederações e da Gymnasíade, em 2013 e do Mundial de Futebol FIFA, em 2014, ainda vindo à frente os Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos, em 2016, a Copa América de Futebol, em 2017 e da Universíade, em 2019. Esses megaeventos integram as estratégias governamentais brasileiras para a almejada inserção protagônica do país no cenário mundial, em um movimento de reposicionamento geopolítico definidor, para tanto, de uma sincronia entre a agenda definida pelos segmentos conservadores do campo esportivo brasileiro ¿ por si só, conservador ¿ e a "nova" ordem político-econômica mundial, configurativa muito mais do quadro de atendimento dos interesses do desenvolvimento urbano centrado na lógica dos negócios, do que propriamente daquele vinculado à materialização de uma política esportiva. Essas ideias constituem o ponto de partida do presente estudo, que versará sobre o Esporte Militar, no Brasil, das quais deriva a questão central que norteia esta pesquisa: Qual o atual lugar do Esporte Militar na política esportiva brasileira? A resposta a esse questionamento concretiza o objetivo geral deste estudo, ou seja, analisar a estratégia de sua reinserção na política esportiva, tendo os V JMMs como elemento canalizador de suas ações, no âmbito dos megaeventos esportivos. As questões foram enfrentadas a partir dos dados obtidos em uma pesquisa de cunho documental/bibliográfico, tendo como referencial teórico o Materialismo Histórico-Dialético, ancorada em peças orçamentárias, dispositivos normativos, matérias jornalísticas, por meio dos quais se pretendeu desvelar as entrelinhas do discurso acerca da realização de uma edição dos JMMs no Brasil. Para dar conta de tal tarefa, o caminho percorrido incluiu os seguintes objetivos específicos: i) partindo da realização da V Edição dos JMMs, retornar às quatro edições anteriores, identificando a participação do Esporte Militar Brasileiro em diálogo com a política esportiva à época de cada uma delas; ii) analisar o dia seguinte aos JMMs, os investimentos realizados, seus legados, a preparação brasileira para as Olimpíadas de Londres, em 2012, os JMMs em 2015 e os Jogos Olímpicos, em 2016; iii) analisar criticamente a realização dos Jogos Mundiais Militares no Brasil à luz do referencial teórico adotado. Foi possível constatar que o posicionamento estratégico das Forças Armadas junto ao Governo Federal e às entidades de administração do esporte nacional, por meio da realização dos JMMs no Brasil, fez parte de um planejamento muito bem articulado, voltado à desoneração dos Jogos Olímpicos de 2016, e à expansão do esporte de alto rendimento por meio dos Programas de cunho esportivo do Governo Federal, em que os militares figuram como parceiros, derrubando a tese de que os JMMs serviram apenas como evento teste para a realização da Copa do Mundo FIFA, em 2014, e os Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos de Verão, em 2016 / Abstract: The first two decades of the twenty-first century come to Brazil reserving a number of mega sporting events started in 2007 with the Pan-American Games in Rio de Janeiro, followed the completion of the V edition of the Military World Games (MWG), in 2011, of the Cup confederations and Gymnasíade in 2013 and the FIFA World Cup in 2014, still coming forward the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2016, the America's Cup Football in 2017 and the Universiade in 2019. These mega events integrate Brazilian governmental strategies for the targeted insertion of the protagonist the world stage, in a move of defining geopolitical repositioning, therefore, of synchrony between the schedule defined by conservative segments of the Brazilian sports field - alone, conservative - and the "new "global political-economic order, configurative much of the framework for meeting the interests of urban development centered on business logic, than that linked to the materialization of a sporting policy. These ideas constitute the starting point of this study, which will focus on the Military Sports in Brazil, which derives the central question guiding this research: What is the actual place of Military sports in Brazilian policy sporting? The answer to this question embodies the objective of this study, analyzing the your strategy of reinsertion in sporting policy and the V JMMs as plumber element of their actions within the sports mega-events. The issues were addressed from the data obtained in a survey of documentary / bibliographic nature, having as theoretical-Dialectical Materialism History, anchored in budget pieces, regulatory requirements, newspaper articles, through which it was intended to unveil the subtext of the speech about performing an edition of JMMs in Brazil. To realize this task, the path taken included the following specific objectives: i) to present the context of realizing the V edition of the JMM; ii) analyze the following day to JMMs, investments, their legacies, Brazil's preparations for the London Olympics in 2012, the JMMs in 2015 and the Olympics in 2016; iii) to review the achievement of the World Military Games in Brazil in light of the theoretical framework adopted.
