Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le sport professionnel est devenu une industrie et de ce fait il doit obéir à la législation sur la concurrence économique (arrêt Bosman). Néanmoins, devant les conséquences d'une application aveugle de ces règles de la concurrence sur l'équilibre de la compétition, il a été reconnu nécessaire de tenir compte des spécificités du secteur sportif. Trois questions font débat pour préserver l'équilibre compétitif quel modèle d'organisation du sport professionnel choisir entre le modèle américain et le modèle européen ? Quelle est l'efficacité relative des modalités de régulation de la mobilité des joueurs professionnels ? Ne faudrait-il pas mettre en œuvre de nouveaux instruments de régulation du marché du travail ?

Download or read book The EU s Government of Worker Mobility written by Hélène Michel and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the expertise of economists, legal scholars, political scientists, and sociologists in order to integrate diverse perspectives and a broad range of analytical tools in the conceptualisation of labour mobility. It examines how variably the question of labour mobility has translated into the policies, laws, and norms through which the EU as a whole is governed. The contributions focus on the actors – European and national officials, experts, trade union and employers’ organisations – and on instruments implemented by institutions and political organisations – European Agency, coordination systems, European Job Mobility Portal (EURES) – to increase and support mobility within the European Union. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European/EU studies, migration studies, labour studies, political sociology, and more broadly to comparative politics.
Download or read book The Political Economy of Professional Sport written by Jean-Francois Bourg and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book offers a critical interpretation of the traditional social and economic accounts of sport. It provides an incisive analysis of professional sport and defines alternative foundations to the present model. The authors demonstrate that professional sport is an extremely complex phenomenon encompassing many unique factors depending on its global reach, financing and organization. In particular they address three significant issues: • an analysis of the relationship between sport and economic development in order to explain the place of professional sport in modern societies • a study of the main difficulties facing the organization of professional sports in terms of financing, collective bargaining and the consequences of revenue sharing for competitive balance • an exploration of alternatives to current governance structures which would involve a return to professional ethics. This insightful and topical book is essential for academics and students of sport management, researchers of the economics of sport, managers of clubs and federations involved in professional sports, as well as civil servants and journalists.
Download or read book Handbook on the Economics of Sport written by Wladimir Andreff and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The editors should be commended for taking on such a big task, and succeeding so well. This book should be in the library of every institution where students have to write a paper that may be related to sport, or on the shelf of any lecturer teaching economics or public finance who has even a remote interest in sport. The material is very accessible, and useful in many different settings. Ruud H. Koning, Jahrbücher f. Nationalökonomie u. Statistik Edward Elgar s brilliant market niche is identifying a topic in economics, finding editors who know the area backwards and challenging them to assemble the best cross-section of relevant articles either already published or newly commissioned. Handbook on the Economics of Sport is Edward Elgar at its very best. If you love economics you ll find many fascinating insights here; if you love sport but know little economics then this book is mostly accessible and will teach you a lot; and if you are a sports-mad economist then you will be in hog heaven. Furthermore, if, like this reviewer, you are broadly very sceptical about the reports consultants produce for governments on the supposed economic windfall from hosting a big event or subsidising a stadium then you will get a lot of good counter-arguments in this volume. Indeed there are several chapters on the above theme that I m sure I ll be copying frequently to government officials in years to come. . . The demand for sport is a fascinating subject and it is hard to pick out just one chapter from the second section. Read them all they make a wonderful 65-page treat. . . Part VI was a real feast, a smorgasbord. . . This is a magnificent piece of work and the 36-page index rounds it all off splendidly. John Blundell, Economic Affairs The book covers the most important areas of research of an emerging economic sub-discipline spanning the past half a century. It serves admirably the purpose of an introduction into the rich and growing area of reflection for all concerned. . . the editors and authors of the Handbook have done a commendable job of accumulating sophisticated material for many economists, managers, politicians and self-conscious fans, who are sure to find excellent training ground for the whole heptathlon. . . This book will be invaluable for advanced students investigating professional sport. From the point of view of lawyers, particularly those engaged with the relationship between law and sports governance, the Handbook offers invaluable analysis of the economic issues that are alluded to in those debates but rarely examined in detail. . . These insights will also prove useful for policy analysts and sports administrators for whom many sections should be considered mandatory reading. Aleksander Sulejewicz, Journal of Contemporary European Research Over 800 pages on the economics of sport. What a feast! What a treat! The editors have done a wonderful job both in terms of breadth from David Beckham to child labour in Pakistan and depth, tournaments and luxury taxes for example. . . The 86 chapters are uniformly of a very high standard and illuminating. And there are real gems in some of the contributions. British Journal on the Economics of Sport This very interesting and comprehensive book achieves its objective, namely to present an overview of research in sports economics at an introductory level. . . [The editors] have produced an excellent reference book that belongs in all academic institutions libraries. It provides extensive introduction to the growing body of literature in the rising field of economics of sport. The book s relevant monographs should be read by institutions, cities and countries prior to their committing major resources towards sports facilities or a sporting event. James Angresano, Journal of Sports Economics One could think of this book as the sports-and-economics counterpart to Joy of Cooking, because it will satisfy the needs of those with a keen interest in such subjects as the

Download or read book Le travail d cent dans le monde du sport written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le sport est considéré comme une forme importante de loisirs et un moyen de promouvoir la paix, la santé humaine, le développement et le travail décent, et il est pratiqué par des millions d'athlètes amateurs et professionnels dans le monde entier. Depuis le milieu du XXe siècle, le sport professionnel est devenu une industrie majeure qui fournit un emploi à des millions de personnes liées à ce secteur. Selon une étude de marché récente, la valeur du marché mondial du sport s'élèverait à 614 milliards de dollars des Etats-Unis (dollars E.-U.), sans compter la fabrication d'équipements sportifs. Ces dernières années, les droits de l'homme et les normes du travail envisagés dans le contexte des événements sportifs, en particulier les méga-événements, ont suscité une attention considérable. Les travaux ont porté pour l'essentiel sur des questions relatives à la construction de sites sportifs, à la fabrication d'équipements sportifs et à l'incidence des événements sportifs sur les communautés locales. Dans le même temps, l'attention a aussi été appelée sur les droits de l'homme et les droits du travail des athlètes qui prennent part à des manifestations sportives professionnelles. Le présent document traite de la question spécifique de l'emploi et des conditions de travail des athlètes qui pratiquent un sport au niveau professionnel.

Download or read book Non profit Governance written by Guillaume Plaisance and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-profit Governance offers 12 perspectives and analytical frameworks to facilitate the development of governance in non-profit organisations (NPOs). In this sector, governance is all the more important because it is often voluntary. Organisations therefore need to be supported in their management, accountability, and strategy. International standards (in particular ISO 37000:2021, dedicated to the governance of organisations) propose key principles to ensure value creation around stakeholder engagement, leadership, risk governance, social responsibility, and organisational sustainability. This book proposes to explore and adapt these principles to the non-profit sector. To do this, the book focuses on four facets of governance: the controls it puts in place, the stakeholders it must listen to and manage, the performance it must monitor, and, finally, the people it must lead and mobilise. The book also highlights the interest of governance mechanisms and processes in developing effective performance, ethics in NPOs and responsible management. Each chapter therefore takes one or more of the principles of ISO 37000:2021 in the non-profit context and builds an analytical framework around them. These 12 frameworks can thus be used by the organisations themselves to develop their governance practices and by researchers who will find original approaches to incorporate into their studies.
Download or read book Fringe Nations in World Soccer written by Kausik Bandyopadhyay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soccer is the most popular mass spectator sport in the world, gaining huge media coverage and reaching all levels of society in countries all around the world. More than just entertainment, soccer has proved to be a reflection of national, cultural, community and ethnic identity as well as an indication of the development and international status of post-colonial nation states. For those nations still at the fringes of the modern global game, soccer represents a vision of potential commercialisation, capable of generating foreign reserves and bringing in considerable economic power. This book explores aspects of the development of soccer in countries which have recently been marginalised in world soccer or have only erratic success on the international stage. These fringe nations include a greater part of Africa, the USA, Australia, Israel, India, Nepal, Bhutan, Burma, Indonesia, Thailand, Maldives and Sri Lanka, and while these countries are rarely noticed by the global football media, they nonetheless have great potential to excel, and many have a rich soccer heritage that still holds a place of central importance in the every day life of the people. This book was previously published as a special issue of Soccer and Society.

Download or read book Pratique Sportive Et Acc s L emploi written by Charlotte Cabane and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette thèse analyse la relation entre pratique sportive non professionnelle et accès à l'emploi. Les déterminants classiques de l'insertion sur le marché du travail (éducation, expérience) ne reflètent pas l'ensemble des compétences d'un individu et ils ne représentent pas non plus les caractéristiques recherchées par les employeurs. Il faut prendre en compte les compétences non cognitives ainsi que les réseaux sociaux des individus développés via leur pratique sportive par exemple. Ensuite, l'analyse du niveau de salaire ne suffit pas à rendre compte de la réussite des individus sur le marché du travail. Pour cela, il est nécessaire d'utiliser des indicateurs de qualité de l'emploi et de satisfaction au travail. Dans un premier temps sont présentés les différents pans de la littérature économique permettant de relier la pratique sportive à l'insertion. Ensuite, les deux premiers chapitres empiriques traitent de la durée du chômage et de la qualité de l'emploi retrouvé en Allemagne. Ces deux études soulignent l'existence d'un effet positif de la pratique sportive des hommes sur leur insertion (due à l'effet de signal et à l'effet de réseau) et d'un effet de sélection pour les femmes. Le dernier chapitre s'attache à évaluer l'impact de la pratique sportive faite à l'adolescence sur l'emploi occupé 13 ans après aux Etats-Unis. L'effet est positif et différent pour les deux sexes : les femmes sont encouragées à faire des sports individuels et les hommes des sports d'équipe. La pratique sportive étant manifestement liée à une insertion réussie sur le marché du travail, il semble pertinent d'encourager un plus grand investissement des individus et des Etats dans ce domaine.
