DROPPING THE BALL: The Understudied Nexus of Sports and Politics

From the Roman Colosseum to the Yankee Stadium, the Olympics to the Super Bowl, sports have always played a central role in societies. With so much at stake—money, pride, power (and occasionally even fun)—sports are undeniably political. Yet despite this recognition, political scientists and policy...

description From the Roman Colosseum to the Yankee Stadium, the Olympics to the Super Bowl, sports have always played a central role in societies. With so much at stake—money, pride, power (and occasionally even fun)—sports are undeniably political. Yet despite this recognition, political scientists and policy scholars devote little attention to the study of sports, especially compared with other disciplines like business, law, and economics. We offer reasons for this void and suggest how political scientists can begin to fill it. In our view, the nexus between sports and politics is not only a vital topic of study on its own, but it can also provide a lens through which to examine—and test—broader questions in the discipline. We propose how scholars can think more systematically about the interaction of politics and sports and leverage the distinctive qualities of sports to improve causal identification across a range of issue areas and subfields in political science and policy studies. Desde el Coliseo romano hasta el Estadio Yankee, los Juegos Olímpicos y el Super Bowl, los deportes siempre han jugado un papel central en las sociedades. Con tanto en juego—dinero, el orgullo, el poder (y ocasionalmente incluso algo de diversión)—los deportes son innegablemente políticos. Sin embargo, a pesar de este reconocimiento, los científicos políticos y los académicos de política dedican poca atención al estudio de los deportes, especialmente en comparación con otras disciplinas como los negocios, el derecho y la economía. Ofrecemos razones para este vacío y sugerimos cómo los científicos políticos pueden comenzar a llenarlo. En nuestra opinión, el nexo entre el deporte y la política no es sólo un tema vital de estudio por sí solo, sino que también puede proporcionar una lente a través de la cual examinar y ensayar preguntas más amplias en la disciplina. Proponemos cómo los académicos pueden pensar de manera más sistemática sobre la interacción de la política y los deportes y aprovechar las cualidades distintivas del deporte para mejorar la identificación causal en una serie de áreas temáticas y subcampos de la ciencia política y el estudio de las políticas. 不论是从罗马斗兽场 洋基体育场,还是从奥运会到超级碗,体育一直 都在社会中充当着中心角色。既然金钱、骄傲和权力(偶尔甚至还有娱乐)这些利害关系都与体育有关,后者一定是具有政治性的。然而, 尽管这一点已被认可,政治科学家和政策学者却很少将注意力放在体育上,这与其对商业、法律和经济的关注相比尤为明显。本文解释了为何体育不受关注这一空缺,并暗示了政治科学家如何能开始填补此空缺。 本文观点认为,体育和政治之间的联系并不仅仅是一个重要的研究话题,它还能提供工具用于检验和检查该学科范围内更广的问题。本文提议学者如何能更系统地考虑体育和政治之间的相互影响,同时充分利用体育的鲜明特性,以更好地识别政治科学和政治研究中一系列问题领域和分支领域之间的因果关系。
