Özet

Globalization covers the whole world with the flow of goods, services, people, capital, information and culture. Within this process, connection and movement has intensified among people. Facilities of transportation and communication have increased and got easier. Communication and information technology has developed. Physical and digital multicultural coexistence area has expanded between people and societies. People from various countries come together at television due to sports events. Sport especially football has a very important place in globalization and coexistence culture. Hereby television, internet and social media have included sport among global trends (2). Many people from various parts of the world share common thought, feeling and behavior on any team, player, match and position. Globalization’s developing coexistence culture and expanding the area of coexistence via sports has many benefits. However, global system has made sports an industry (2). Everything is built on earnings. The commercialization and commodification of sports, players and spectators weakens human values. Besides, it causes many damages and negative developments. While sports provide coexistence in the globalization process, it may also lead to polarization. However, integration of humanity on common values is necessary for the global society. It is possible for Turkey and Turkish nation to improve coexistence culture via sport in the globalization process, to enrich it and to contribute to humanity. In terms of its history and values, Turkish society can be a global pioneer in sport’s developing coexistence culture (9). In addition, diversification of sports, protection of developer and traditional sports are necessary in the global process. That people maintain a healthy and fit life is important for the next generations. Protection of basic social values by humanity in the global process is possible with physically and mentally healthy people. Sport widens coexistence area. Communication and information technology supplies many opportunities in this respect. In the globalization process that communication and interaction is gradually increasing, humanitarian and social values have gained more importance. Globalization means the variety and wealth of coexistence by protecting obligation, responsibility and values.
