| Sumario: | The organization and expansion of international sport during the 20th century was anchored mainly in the political and economic involvement of nation states, motivated by their representation in sports competitions through the intermediation of the National Sports Federations and National Olympic Committees. However, the political and sports-based conflict of the Cold War, the questioning of the hegemonic role of the state as the center of International Relations, as well as the crisis faced by major sports events, has led to the current undermining of the centrality of the role of the state in international sport.
