This fascinating collection of essays explores the complex
economic, political, cultural and social claims over sport, from
multi-disciplinary perspectives including philosophy, history,
political science and management. The book seeks to uncover some of
the tensions and dilemmas wrapped up within aspects of owning sport
and attempts to make sense of the place, role, meaning and function
of sport when set against the broad notion of ownership. It
considers the relationships between individuals, organisations and
institutions, and investigates the power of grassroots participants
from the bottom up. In presenting contemporary analyses from many
viewpoints, not simply the commercial, it asks the reader to think
of sport differently. Important reading for scholars and students
with an interest in sport and society, sport management, policy or
development, as well as those studying political science,
economics, philosophy and development studies, this is also a
useful resource for practitioners, managers and those working
strategically with sport.
