Abstract:

Digital technology is changing everything about modern sports. Athletes and coaches rely on digital data to monitor and enhance performance. Officials use tracking systems to augment their judgment in what is an increasingly superhuman field of play. Spectators tune in to live sports through social media, or even through virtual reality. Audiences now act as citizen journalists whose collective shared data expands the places in which we consume sports news. Sport 2.0 examines the convergence of sports and digital cultures, examining not only how it affects our participation in sport but also h

Abstract:

Rugby union is the second most popular team sport in the world with over 100 countries affiliated to the International Rugby Board (IRB) and with the Rugby World Cup the third most popular televised sports event behind only the Olympic Games and the FIFA Football World Cup. Rugby is a full-contact sport played predominantly by men and boys. Although the 15-a-side game continues to be the most common form of rugby played, the faster seven-a-side game is increasing in popularity and is the format of rugby that the IOC adopted as an official Olympic sport (...

Abstract:

This chapter studies corruption in the sports arena focusing more specifically on the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA). FIFA has recently been so much in the media as the lack of governance has allowed a vast graft and corruption network to evolve. If an association decides to distribute its funds amongst its members, this is hardly a crime—even if the stakeholders, who have an interest in the sports they govern, may be aggrieved. Matters are different obviously where officials of the association secretly syphon off funds of the association into their private pockets (em

Abstract:

Using previously inaccessible archival documents, this study provides a longitudinal investigation of the middle levels of Soviet bureaucracy responsible for overseeing Olympic Sport during the Cold War. Spanning the period from the USSR’s Olympic debut in 1952 through the 1980 Games held in Moscow, this book argues that behind the high-profile performances of Soviet elite athletes, a legion of sports administrators worked within international sports organizations and the Soviet party-state to increase Soviet chances of success and make Soviet representatives a respected voice in international

Abstract:

This book chronicles the history of Women’s Artistic Gymnastics against the backdrop of the Cold War. Accepted into the Olympic program in 1952 because it was considered uniquely appropriate for women, the sport has always been defined by the performance of femininity. Eastern bloc governments harnessed the nonthreatening nature of gymnasts to advance their political ambitions through citizen diplomacy. Yet at the same time, they were accused of flouting the amateur rule. But this was not the only rule being broken. Some also cheated by score fixing and later, age falsification. The sport beca

Abstract:

Why Delegate? investigates the incentives to delegate and the risks that one takes in doing so. From mundane interactions like choosing a plumber to weightier tasks like the running of a country, and from recreational enjoyments to the protection of human rights, the world turns on delegation. Where it is successful, delegation brings efficiency, shared responsibility, and even happiness. Where it is not, it brings conflict, corruption, and an absence of accountability. One may hear of Saudi hit squads loose in Istanbul, rogue software engineers creating pollution scandals at Volkswagen, and i

Abstract:

The latest climate change adaptation strategies adopted by local governments in Japan are discussed. A nationwide survey demonstrates several significant findings. While some prefectures and major cities have already begun to prepare adaptation strategies, most municipalities have yet to consider such strategies. This gap must be considered when studying the climate adaptation strategies of local governments in Japan, as municipal governments are crucial to the implementation of climate adaptation strategies due to high diversity in climate impacts and geographical conditions among municipalit
