Synopsis "Numbers and Narratives: Sport, History and Economics (Sport in the Global Society – Contemporary Perspectives)"
This volume argues for a more quantitative, economic and theoretical approach to sports history. The author notes that sport can have peculiar economics as in no other industry do rival businesses have to cooperate to produce a sellable output. Another analysis examines how industrialisation affected sport, how sport became an industry in its own right and how the workplace became a major provider of sports facilities. A look at third sector economics highlights how the popularity of football provided an ideal vehicle for charity fundraising. This book was originally published as a special issue of Sport in Society.
