Sport policy: concept interpretation and definition problems

Summary/Abstract: Since the beginning of its existence, sport has played an important role in society. With the potential of social impact, sport was bound to produce a close relationship with the sphere of politics. An aim of this paper is to introduce the concept of sports policy to the Polish scientific discourse. This concept is used very rarely in Polish political and scientific discourse. On the other hand, in the UK, Scandinavian countries, Canada and Germany a distinct nature of sport policy is exposed to a large extent. In the mentioned countries no one negates its concepts, localization and social usefulness. It is described there as one of the elements of social policy. There are even scientific discussions on the inclusion of sport policy in defined categories of public policies.
