Scholarship concerning relations between North and South Korea has focused on the political and economic areas of relations between the two Koreas, and the unification issue has been mainly considered a work of government conducted in the formal political domain.

Abstract:

The organizational justice perspective suggests that procedural and distributive justice evaluations of a specific punishment event will affect an individual's reactions to the punishment. A 3 (decision-making procedure: autocratic, participative, group) X 3 (punishment severity: low, moderate, high) factorial design was utilized to develop punishment scenarios in team-sport settings which were evaluated by 205 participants. Decision-making procedure and punishment severity both produced significant main effects on evaluations of the fairness of the procedure. Only punishment severity produced

Abstract:

<p>Abstract Many secondary administrators, coaches, and security personnel have advocated for an intervention method to curtail the swell of referrals, ejections, and violence from the spectator sections in attendance at these events. The spirit of Olympism and sportsmanship is considered a core element of these events. The problem was that many of the events have seen a rise in these incidents. There is a correlation of the infusion of these elements, and the atmosphere at these events.

Abstract:

Substitute major events include live sites, event celebrations and viewing parties that are held at the same time as the actual major event, but away from the actual major event site. These events are becoming increasingly used by stakeholders to counteract venue and destination capacity concerns, and in leveraging the social value connected with major sporting and non-sporting events. They are also becoming frequently used by consumers as a way of feeling a part of the major event, particularly when spectatorship to the actual event venue may not be possible.

This thesis deals with the relationship between mood and behavior of bettors using a dataset provided by a betting company, Chance a.s., which operates in the Czech Republic.

We provide strong evidence that the weather proxy has a significant effect on daily turnovers of the betting company and there also seems to be an effect of sport optimism.

At large sporting events (LSEs), e.g. football matches and athletics events, the user experience has been shown to be highly variable (Nilsson, 2004; Nilsson et al. 2004). Reported problems include a lack of social interaction with fellow spectators, and insufficient relevant information on the events or the sporting action taking place (Nilsson, 2004; Nilsson et al. 2004; Esbjornsson et al. 2006; Jacucci et al. 2005).

Hosting an Olympic Games is a large and complex undertaking that requires years of planning, billions of pounds and thousands of people to stage.

The issue of terrorism has been a major concern for Olympic planners since the terrorist attack at the 1972 Munich Olympics. More recently, the terrorist bombing at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and 9/11 have served to further amplify concerns of terrorism a

Abstract:

International sporting mega-events such as the Olympic Games, are constantly in a behind the scenes and public all out commercial war. This war is a combat between event organizers and ambush marketers who engage in ambush marketing tactics. These marketing strategies can be found from big corporate companies to tiny local shops but almost always end in legal action. While this battle is very real it often goes unnoticed by the public and many fans. This war is fought during most sports mega-events in order to protect the highly lucrative commercial rights of an event's sponsor. This paper wil

A wide array of concepts and tools are drawn from the work of Pierre Bourdieu and contrasted with methods and notions from discursive and semiotic analysis to interrogate a national-sports nexus in which sports are vehicles to embody nations, their matrices of thought and perception, and their dominant order of masculinity and heteronormativity in the national subject, so that th
