- Abstract
In contemporary social life, both ordinary people and political and cultural personalities value sport as a phenomenon with special functions in the development of the individual and through its socio-economic implications. Through its economic-financial implications such as the ever-flourishing industry of sports equipment and technology, huge amounts of money, accumulated and handled by clubs and sportsmen, advertisements, legal implications concerning national and international regulations, political implication in relationship with competition between countries, national pride, cultural implications including media, spectators, fanaticism, health implications in correlation with the obsession with the healthy body and others, it can be said that today sport is a major social phenomenon. This is valid for the developed countries, but also for the developing countries even if the agreement of opinions is not so high in this regard. In our paper we analyze the social and economic dimensions of the sport and of how it came to influence sustainable development today, as well as a presentation of the gains generated by some of the most important sporting events over time.
