The Scandinavian and Nordic countries have some of the highest
participation rates in sport and physical activity in the world and
are therefore important case studies across a range of subjects,
from sport policy to physical activity and health. This is the
first book to bring together studies of all those countries in one
volume, examining sport, physical activity and exercise, and
exploring the factors behind such high levels of participation.
Rich in empirical data, the book examines trends in sports
participation, organisation and policy in each of the constituent
countries, highlighting common themes and outcomes. This is a
valuable resource for students, researchers and academics working
in the fields of sport, physical education, leisure, sport policy,
sport development, the sociology of sport, and physical activity
and health.
