Details

Encompasses both autonomous and State-created rules regarding the economic, social, commercial, cultural, and political aspects of sports activities
Attention to regulations that invoke criminal law, labour law, commercial law, tax law, and other fields of law, often applied across borders
Available monographs cover sports law in Australia, China, Croatia, France, Italy, Japan, Poland, Russia, the United Kingdom, the United States, and many more jurisdictions

The trend towards more professionalism in sport and the growing economic, social, and cultural relevance of sport have prompted an increasing reliance on legal rules adopted by public authorities. The monographs derived from the Sports Law section of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws reflect this development without discounting the traditional lex sportiva. Each monograph covers such issues and topics in the field as the following:

organization of sport;
sport and employment;
doping and sport; and
sport and commerce.

Lawyers who handle transnational matters in the area of sports law will greatly appreciate these country monographs. Academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative sports law.

The International Encyclopaedia of Laws is peer-reviewed under the responsibility of the editors and the general editor’s office.
