"European Sports Law: Collected Papers contains the collected works (1989-2006) of Stephen Weatherill, Jacques Oelors Professor of European Community Law, Somerville College, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, with an extensive introduction on the background and rationale for the selected papers. Weatherill is a leading academic and author on the subject of European Union law and professional sport. His work is of the highest academic standard and practice-oriented at the same time, which has a strong impact on major court cases and the development of international sports law in general.". "This book is a reference tool for all those professionally involved (academics, practitioners, researchers, advisers, administrators, marketers and broadcasters) in the field of international sport and the challenges that the interface between European law and sport provides in daily life; increasingly important now that sport is big business, accounting forty-two percent of the combined GNP of the enlarged European Union of twenty-seven Member States."--BOOK JACKET.
