"The Routledge Handbook on Sports Law and Governance provides a definitive guide to the regulation of international and national sport through the lens of both regulatory, governance and legal frameworks. Over the past several decades, law, regulation, and governance associated with international and national sport has grown exponentially, aligned with professional and elite level sport development. The organisation and sophistication of international and national sporting competitions creates an environment where pressures such as the sports ethic and strong incentives to win give rise to both novel problems and reoccurring themes. Exploring a wide range of perspectives across disciplines and transcending jurisdictional boundaries, the handbook analysescomplex international and national sports challenges. Taking a nuanced approach to traditional themes, it recognises the context and sport as a regulatory domain when applying law and legal frameworks. This book is an essential resource for students and academics exploring issues in international and national sports law, sports regulation and sport governance"--
