Sport as Culture in EC Law

Stephen Weatherill-2013-12-21-ASSER international sports law series

TL;DRAbstract

My approach in this paper will be to inquire into aspects of the business of sport that are treated as different from ‘normal’ businesses; to inquire what legal devices reflect these special characteristics; and then to consider whether the distinct treatment is justified, which will involve not only consideration of the peculiar economic context of organized sport but also some assessment of the perceived ‘cultural quality’ of sport. Are sport’s cultural properties being burned off by commercial growth?
