Sports law and policy in the European Union

by Richard Parrish, Dimitris Papadimitriou (Editor), Simon Bulmer (Editor), Andrew Geddes (Editor), Peter Humphreys (Editor)

Overview

Adopting a distinctive legal and political analysis, this book argues that the EU is receptive to the sports sectors claims for special treatment before the law. The book investigates the birth of EU sports law and policy by examining significant court decisions, the possibility of exempting sport from EU law, sport and the EU treaty, and more.
