Sport - in particular high-performance sport - is a fascination that is used as a platform for societal concerns. This is the base for different interests in active and passive sports and the state's interest in top-class sport. In most countries, top-class sport is a national concern: states train their athletes in national training centres, support their sports associations in international competitions or promote applications for major sporting events.The articles in this volume provide a well-founded insight into the organisation of high-performance sport and show the different paths of selected countries.

The autonomy of sport which is constitutionally recognised is not consistently respected by EU law. There are complaints that the necessary cooperation of the federations in sport is not sufficiently taken into account. This is where the speakers of the 9th International Hamburg Symposium "Sport and Economics" come in when they address legal and economic questions about major sporting events and discuss proposals on the status of sport in the European context. It shows that sport is economically shaped, which has not yet found an adequate equivalent at European level. This is evident, for example, in sports betting and the gambling monopoly.The volume will further stimulate the debate created by the EU White Paper on Sport and the Bundestag resolution on sport in Europe.

"Take the red pill and discover how beneath the blah-blah of business-speak lies the pernicious ideology of Managerialism, which is progressively infecting our thinking and disabling our critical capacities. This book lays bare the ways instrumental reason is colonizing everyday life, and offers some powerful remedies. Read it and wake up!" —Paul S. Adler, University of Southern California. "In the past century we have seen the inexorable rise of a class of people called managers who now seem to run every organization. In this sharp and beautifully written book, one of the major critics of managerialism shows us how this takeover relies on language to produce its own reality. If you want to speak like a manager, and understand what that speech does to you and others, then read this book." —Martin Parker, Lead for the Bristol Inclusive Economy initiative, Department of Management, Bristol University, UK. This book explains how management became Managerialism and how the language of managerialism was developed. Providing a comprehensive discussion of the managerialism-language interface, the book argues that firstly, managerialism itself has developed its distinctive language; and secondly, the two concepts of managerialism and language mutually depend upon each other. Written from the critical media studies perspective of the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory, the book reaches beyond simple business communication, illustrating how the language of managerialism is colonising the non-corporate lifeworld. The book concludes by offering fresh ideas on how to move beyond the language of managerialism. Thomas Klikauer is a Senior Lecturer at the SGSM (Western Sydney University). A prolific author, his publications include Management Education (2017), Hegel's Moral Corporation (2016), Seven Moralities of Human Resource Management (2014), Managerialism (2013), and Seven Management Moralities (2012). .
