This book fills an important gap in the sport governance literature by engaging in critical reflection on the concept of -good governance-. It examines the theoretical perspectives that lead to different conceptualisations of governance and, therefore, to different standards for institutional quality.
It explores the different practical strategies that have been employed to achieve the implementation of good governance principles. The first part of the book aims to shed light on the complexity and nuances of good governance by examining theoretical perspectives including leadership, value, feminism, culture and systems. The second part of the book has a practical focus, concentrating on reform strategies, from compliance policies and codes of ethics to external reporting and integrity systems. Together, these studies shed important new light on how we define and understand governance, and on the limits and capabilities of different methods for inducing good governance.
