Sport Policy Systems and Sport Federations cover

This book explores the organisation and structure of sport in and beyond Europe. Drawing upon up-to-date data, the collection’s main focus lies on the relationship between public sport policy structures and sport (con)federations. The authors present thirteen country-specific contexts wherein sport policy systems are embedded. This evidence provides in-depth descriptions and analyses within a solid academic and theoretical framework. This volume will be of interest to students and scholars of Sociology of Sport, Sport Management and Sport Policy.

“The book is well-written. The exposition is self-contained, intelligent and well-paced. The book will appeal to people working in fractal geometry and dynamical systems as well as people working in number theory.” (Lars Olsen, Jahresbericht der Deutschen Mathematiker-Vereinigung, Vol. 121, 2019)
