The representation of Yusra Mardini as a Refugee Olympic Athlete: A sociological analysis
Summary
This article explores the representation of Yusra Mardini as a refugee Olympic athlete. Her participation in the 2016 Olympic Games is analyzed through different areas of programming of the mass media and, specifically, through Mardini’s autobiography, documents of the International Olympic Committee, and German newspapers. A qualitative content analysis is carried out and a systems theoretical framework applied. The results reveal that Mardini’s refugee background was both an obstacle and an advantage for her career within the sport system. The establishment of the Refugee Olympic Team generated positive response from the International Olympic Committee but also exposed contradictions in its inclusion rules. The newspapers showed a strong interest in Mardini and presented her as a hero, downplaying her performances and emphasizing her life story. Following an analysis of the interconnections between these different representations, the discussion turns to the mechanisms that go beyond the inclusion of Mardini in professional sports and focuses on the latent information within the materials.
Zusammenfassung
Dieser Artikel untersucht die Darstellung von Yusra Mardini als Refugee Olympic Athlete. Ihre Teilnahme an den Olympischen Spielen 2016 wird durch verschiedene Programmbereiche der Massenmedien und speziell durch Mardinis Autobiografie, Dokumente des Internationalen Olympischen Komitees und deutsche Zeitungen analysiert. Es wird eine qualitative Inhaltsanalyse durchgeführt und ein systemtheoretischer Rahmen angewandt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Mardinis Flüchtlingshintergrund sowohl ein Hindernis als auch ein Vorteil für ihre Karriere innerhalb des Sportsystems war. Die Etablierung des Refugee Olympic Teams erzeugte positive Resonanz beim Internationalen Olympischen Komitee, deckte aber auch Widersprüche in dessen Aufnahmeregeln auf. Die Zeitungen zeigten ein starkes Interesse an Mardini und präsentierten sie als Heldin, indem sie ihre Leistungen herunterspielten und ihre Lebensgeschichte betonten. Nach der Analyse der Zusammenhänge zwischen diesen verschiedenen Darstellungen wendet sich die Diskussion den Mechanismen zu, die über die Einbeziehung Mardinis in den Profisport hinausgehen, und konzentriert sich auf die latenten Informationen innerhalb der Materialien.
