Editat de Brian P. McCullough, Timothy B. Kellison

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 aug 2017

The natural environment is a central issue in both academic and wider societal discourse. The global sport industry is not immune from this discussion and has to confront its responsibility to reduce its impact on the natural environment. This book goes further than any other in surveying both the challenges and the opportunities presented to the sports industry as it engages with the sustainability agenda, exploring the various ways in which sport scholars can integrate sustainability into their research. With a multidisciplinary sweep, including management, sociology, law, events, and ethics, this is a ground-breaking book in the study of sport.
Drawing on cutting-edge research, it includes over thirty chapters covering all the most important themes in contemporary sport studies such as:

climate change, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility
ethics, governance, and the law
event management, tourism, and pollution
marketing, branding, and consumer behavior
the Olympics, urban development, and mega-event legacies.

With contributions from world-leading researchers and practitioners from around the globe, this is the most comprehensive book ever published on sport and the environment.

"This text would serve students well in an undergraduate survey course on sport and the environment and as a supplemental text for graduate facility management, event management, sociology, and governance courses. Overall, the text offers a much-needed foundational text to promote more robust knowledge of sport and the environment and how to leverage that knowledge to create a more synergistic relationship between the two." - Joyce Olushola Ogunrinde, University of Houston, Journal of Sport Management
"The chapters in this book show the variety of environmental issues and initiatives in sports. While many highlight how sport organization, facilities, participants and supporters still act in unsustainable ways, there is a translation of an abundance of positive examples. I read this volume as one of many signs that sport can no longer escape issues of environmental impact, sustainability and climate change." - David Svensson, Chalmers University of Technology, idrottsforum.org
