Description
Understanding International Sport Organisations: Principles, Power and Possibilities by Lincoln Allison and Alan Tomlinson is a critical analysis of the governance of international sport. The book examines the rise of sporting international non-governmental organisations (SINGOs) and their structures, organisational behaviour, and power in the context of modern sport and international politics. Through case studies of key events such as the Olympics and recent FIFA scandals, the authors shed new light on the relationship between these SINGOs and the sports they govern. Combining historical insight with original research, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the significance of these organisations today. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the politics of sport, sociology of sport, or sport administration, offering valuable insights into the complex world of international sport governance.
