Sport Policy in China Hardback
by Jinming Zheng, Shushu Chen, Tien-Chin Tan, Barrie (Loughborough University, Leicestershire, UK) Houlihan
Part of the Routledge Research in Sport Politics and Policy series
Hardback
Description
Acknowledging China’s established status as a global sporting superpower, this is the first book to systematically investigate sport policy in that country.
With a focus on sport development in the most recent three decades, Sport Policy in China explores a wide range of topics in Chinese sport, including elite sport development, professional sports, major sports events, sport for all, the political context within which sport is interiorised and the distinctive sporting status of Hong Kong.
It examines the debates around policy, globalisation, diplomacy and soft power, as well as the significance of the principle of ‘one country, two systems’. With international appeal, this book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of sport policy, sport management, sport development and sport sociology.
