Sport is often seen as an indicator of the civic maturity of a
community, an aspect of the rights of citizens to health, education
and social integration. This book examines the relationships
between participation in sport and physical activity, and welfare
policies across Europe. It argues that the success of campaigns for
the promotion of sport depend on the existence of dedicated welfare
policies promoted by the European states and explores variations in
cultural models and structures of governance across Europe.
Addressing the function of supranational institutions such as the
EU as well as voluntary networks, the book illuminates key issues
in European societies such as migration, financial austerity and
Brexit as they relate to sport policy. This is important reading
for scholars and students in the fields of European sport and
physical activity, sociology, political science and organisational
analysis, as well as operators and managers of the sport systems
involved in advanced training programmes.
