Abstract
Since the Second World War, Judo has undergone a very rapid transformation from a small-scale, rather esoteric, Japanese ''martial art'' to a relatively large- scale, modern, international sport. This transformation has involved changes in the organisational scale, complexity and orientation, and in the nature of the le gitimation of authority, that have profoundly affected the symbolic systems, justi fying beliefs and supporting sentiments of the training cultures within which Judo is practised, and also the processes of cultural transmission.Keywords
