Remaking Participation - Science, Environment and Emergent Publics

Zunachst werden die Grundlagen und Prinzipien von Sport und Sportförderung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland vorgestellt. Auf der Basis einer detaillierten Darstellung der Landessportförderung am Beispiel des Haushaltsjahres 2006 gelingt erstmalig die Berechnung der Höhe der allgemeinen Sportförderung der Bundeslander je Einwohner. Dieses Ergebnis wird in Bezug zu verschiedensten unabhangigen Variablen gesetzt, um diejenigen Faktoren identifizieren zu können, die die Unterschiede in der Sportförderung zwischen den Bundeslandern erklaren. Erganzt werden diese Analysen durch Experteninterviews mit Hauptgeschaftsführern fünf ausgewahlter Landessportbünde, die ausführlich dokumentiert werden.
