Abstract
Illustrating the development, relationships, situation and problems of the sociology of sport in Austria, a chronology is provided of the varied history of the subject from the first steps of Karl Gaulhofer during the 1920s and 1930s to the anthropological foundation and empirical work of the emerging field of sociology of sport 50 years later.
