The Olympic Games, Sports Law and Human Rights

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2024-12-19
  • -
  • Publisher: Routledge

This book explores the relationship between sports law, the Olympic Movement and human rights. Examining the historical legal roots of contemporary 'Olympic law', including the ancient history of the Olympic Games and the legacy of Pierre de Coubertin, the book shines new light on one of the most important issues in world sport today. Written by a practising lawyer with expertise in sports law, the book explains the core concepts underpinning Olympic law and offers in-depth analysis of the Olympic Charter, arguing that the Charter is a key legal instrument in the context of which the interplay between ethics, rights and the Olympics must be understood. The book also examines key contemporary issues at the nexus of sports law and human rights, including religious freedom and protests by athletes. Offering a new inter-disciplinary perspective on Olympic law, drawing on legal theory, history and contemporary social scientific studies in sport, this book is fascinating reading for any advanced student, researcher, policy-maker or practitioner with an interest in sports law, the Olympic Games, mega-events or human rights.

Czech Yearbook of International Law - The Role of Governmental and Non-governmental Organizations in the 21st Century - 2014

The Czech Yearbooks Project, for the moment made up of the Czech Yearbook of International Law® and the Czech (& Central European) Yearbook of Arbitration®, began with the idea to create an open platform for presenting the development of both legal theory and legal practice in Central and Eastern Europe and the approximation thereof to readers worldwide. This platform should serve as an open forum for interested scholars, writers, and prospective students, as well as practitioners, for the exchange of different approaches to problems being analyzed by authors from different jurisdictions, and therefore providing interesting insight into issues being dealt with differently in many different countries.

Nesse contexto, a pandemia da Covid-19 potencializou e revelou ainda mais capacidade de resiliência e de adaptação do ser humano e do Direito a esse cenário desafiador. O teletrabalho, a subordinação algorítmica, a uberização (e a youtuberização) das relações de trabalho, a gig economy, o crowdwo...
