In Germany gymnastics and sport had formed alliances with medical "sciences" as early as the 18th century. At the end of the 19th century, the rise of sport provoked heated debates among physicians about the benefits and the dangers of sporting activities. After World War I, sport became a fashion and a mass movement that increasingly attracted the interest of the medical profession. Doctors organized congresses and founded a professional organization and journal. Using theoretical approaches to professionalization, the efforts of "sport physicians" to gain professional status (and the resources and power connected with it) will be analyzed and interpreted.
在德国，早在18世纪，体操和体育运动就与医学“科学”结成了联盟。19世纪末，体育运动的兴起在医生中引发了关于体育活动利弊的激烈辩论。第一次世界大战后，体育运动成为一种时尚和群众运动，越来越吸引医学界的关注。医生们组织了大会，成立了专业组织并创办了专业期刊。本文将运用职业化的理论方法，对“运动医生”为获得专业地位（以及与之相关的资源和权力）所做的努力进行分析和解读。
