In the 3rd module we analyzed sport as a tool and practice of social inclusion, talking about all the benefits that this brings on an emotional and social level. With the 4th module, however, we move to deepen another aspect of sport, the economic one.
In fact, there are two definitions of sport economics: the first, more restricted, delimits the field of investigation to those employed in the sector and to the economic effects of great professional sport and major events. The second also includes indirect effects such as the induced purchase of sports clothing and equipment, sports tourism, the purchase of newspapers and sports publications.
