Inhoud
Over the past few years, ‘good’ governance in sport has become a central topic both within the European Union (EU)’s political agenda and within the sport management scholarly community. One explanation for this increased and voluminous policy research and scholarly activity on the matter, is the number of recent scandals (such as the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic bribery incident, the 2015 FIFA corruption crisis, or the 2016 IAAF case) that have affected international and national sporting organisations and have made headlines for months on end.
This, in turn, has attracted the attention of policy makers, investors, fans, consumers and sport enthusiasts in general, due to the apparent appearance of a ‘legitimacy gap’ (see Sethi, 1979) between sport (organisations) and its stakeholders. Such a ‘gap’ occurs when organisational goals, methods of operation, and outcomes are not in accordance with the expectations of those stakeholders who confer legitimacy (Wartick and Mahon, 1994). As such, the level of scrutiny that sport is now exposed to ensures that (how) decisions made on everything from event-bidding to the signing of sponsorship contracts are examined at an almost forensic level of detail (Anagnostopoulos and Winand, 2019). Therefore, this course will examine governance issues across the sporting landscape with the view to addressing how these can be avoided in future.
