"Lifts the analysis out of the nuts and bolts of sports policy and into some really thought-provoking areas which will equip the policy maker for the challenges of the 21st century"
- Dominic Malcolm, Loughborough University

"This is an excellent analysis of the significance of globalisation for national sport policy and especially of the impact of global processes at the local socio-cultural level"
- Barrie Houlihan, Loughborough University

Drawing upon a range of empirical case studies, Catherine Palmer situates sports policy within a broader consideration of global processes, practices and consequences, exploring the relationship between:

  • the local and the global
  • globalization and governance
  • new technologies
  • human rights
  • the environment
  • corporate responsibility.

In doing so she sets out the ground for an understanding of policy making in sport and how this affects society.

Covering both theory and practice, it is a detailed and thought provoking resource for students of sports policy, sports development, sports management and sports studies.
