Bob Stewart

    Professor Bob K. Stewart geeft al twintig jaar les en doet onderzoek op het gebied van sportmanagement en sportbeleid. Hij kwam met een sterke interesse in de commerciële en sociologische ontwikkeling van Australian-rules football naar de sportstudies en heeft sindsdien de vooruitgang ervan kritisch beoordeeld. Stewart's expertise ligt in het begrijpen van hoe neoliberalisme en hypermodernisme de praktijk en regelgeving van hedendaagse sporten vormgeven.
