The study of sport has seen rapid expansion in recent years, expanding into more and more disciplines including sociology, history, international relations and politics. Most strikingly, the past few decades have seen sport’s political salience increase greatly, with governments of all political hues now tending to view sport and sports mega-events as vehicles through which to meet wide-reaching, non-sporting objectives. For the first time, defining articles on the key issues in sport politics from the last forty years have been brought together in a single resource, allowing for a nuanced examination of key developments and possible future directions.

The collection is divided across four volumes, each addressing a key theme of sport politics:



Volume One: Sport in History

Volume Two: Sport and International Relations


Volume Three: Sport and Domestic Policy

Volume Four: The Politics of Sport
