POLIS - Polity, Politics and Policies of Sport
Polity, Politics and Policy of Sport - Picking up where we left off
POLIS was founded in 2017 on the initiative of Jeroen Scheerder (KU Leuven) and Jürgen Mittag (DSHS Cologne). The network aims to foster closer cooperation between academics working in the field of sports policy or dealing with political issues related to sport. After a first workshop in Cologne in 2017, followed by several meetings at EASS conferences, workshops in Papendal, Utrecht and Cologne, we want to pick up where we left off in 2024: We want to renew and deepen our discussions on policy in the field of sport. The workshop will provide the opportunity to present ongoing research, discuss new ideas for joint research and identify themes and agendas.
