Journal Title: GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
The foundation of a sports club in socialist Romania used to be a priority for each existing economic unit within the Romanian political-administrative area. Football, according to the number of teams, localities and competitions existing during 1981 and 1989, was by far the best represented sport. By analyzing the data, five categories of team names were identified, grouped according to the local specificity of the natural elements or economic domains. Each club would “borrow” its name from the financing economic institution, thus each name was identified with an economic domain. 76 names were identified, belonging to 162 teams, which reflected the representative economic domains of 100 localities (8 towns and 92 villages), being at the same time a specific form of institutional advertising. By analyzing a string of data from the period of time between 1981 and 1989, a map was created reflecting the socialist symbols in amateur football of Maramureș County, a novelty element in the specialty literature
