Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful
introductions to major fields in the social sciences, business and
law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to
be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of
the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject
areas. Stephen F. Ross presents this succinct introduction to key
topics of law specific to sports, comparing approaches to sports
law across the globe, with particular focus on the United States,
Europe, and common law jurisdictions. Contrasting the
profit-maximizing approach of North American leagues with the
global integrated approach of professional sports governed by
national and international governing boards, the book offers a
novel model for the latter. Key features include: an exploration of
how law facilitates or impairs revenue generation through contract,
intellectual property, and other doctrines an insight into remedies
for player contract breaches examination of the widespread use of
arbitration in the resolution of sports law disputes analysis of
competition law and human rights law as the principal external
legal constraints on sporting entities. This Advanced Introduction
will be a useful resource for scholars and advanced students of
sports law. It will also be beneficial for sports lawyers and
practitioners, as well as those in the fields of global and
transnational law.
