Governance and Competition in Professional Sports Leagues
The book is the result of the II Congress of Sports Economics (Gijón, Spain, May 3-5, 2007) devoted to League Governance and Competition. It is organized in three different parts. The first one deals with governance in leagues and in professional sports in general. The second part analyses the consequences of different changes in the competition system at the European level. The third part has an institutional approach and different cases of governance in football leagues around the world are analysed.
The Comparative Economics of Sport

Tailhook, Eagles in Flight
Understanding the role of women in Latin American history demands a full examination of their activities in the region's political, economic, and domestic spheres. Toward this end, historian Gertrude M. Yeager has assembled the multidisciplinary collection Confronting Change, Challenging Tradition. The essays in this volume explore the ways in which Latin American women have shaped-and have been shaped by-the traditional practices and ideologies of their cultures. The selections are arranged in two sections: Culture and the Status of Women, and Reconstructing the Past.
