International Sports Law and Business

This comprehensive, three-volume set focuses on the legal and business aspects of sports in the USA and abroad. The authors have presented the subject matter from a practical and pragmatic perspective, yet with analytical precision and attention to fine points of detail. This work is composed of five parts. Part I deals with the law and business of sports in the United States, with the primary emphasis on the legal aspects of professional sports. Part II deals with the internationalization of sports from various perspectives, principally North American team sports. In Part III the law and business of sports is explored in 18 foreign (from an American's standpoint) jurisdictions. Part IV treats the legal and, to some extent, business aspects of broadcasting and sports, both in the United States and in selected foreign jurisdictions. Finally, Part V focuses upon sports marketing in its variegated forms in the USA, as well as its international perspectives.
