This essential manual describes the scope and limits of the European Court of Human Rights' role in resolving human rights disputes in the field of sport, drawing on its own case law and that of other jurisdictions, notably the United States. It covers all aspects of the actual and potential application of human rights in sport as they relate to athletes, players, clubs and supporters. All those who are involved in sport and all those interested in the link between human rights education, strategic litigation and sport will find in this indispensable manual the first in-depth reviews of the Court's case law in this area.
« Daniel Rietiker's new book has great practical value for those interested in the nexus of human rights education, strategic litigation and sports. It provides the first comprehensive summaries of case law from the European Court of Human Rights in the field of sport and forecasts future issues relevant to vulnerable populations, including individuals with disabilities ».
