SOME COMPARATIVE ECONOMICS OF THE ORGANIZATION OF SPORTS: COMPETITION AND REGULATION IN NORTH AMERICAN vs. EUROPEAN PROFESSIONAL TEAM SPORTS LEAGUES
نویسنده
چکیده
What is the future of comparative economics? This question has been with us since the collapse of the former communist regimes associated with “socialist centrally planned economies”. Various responses have been suggested in the literature during the postcommunist period of economic transformation and I will briefly sketch a few of them below (see section 1). But no one could imagine that a possible dividing line between a quasisocialist system and a deregulated market economy were to persist in some area until today, 2010. Had it been so, would not all those involved into comparative economics have taken this opportunity to prolong the use of their usual economic and institutional tools of comparative analysis in that area? Amazing as it may seem, such an area does exist and my contribution is devoted to briefly present it as an avenue for new comparative economic research.
