註釋

This chapter examines pertinent issues concerning the determination of the nationality of athletes, such as the growing practice of country swapping and 'quickie citizenships' in the international sports arena. Despite substantial litigation and arbitration of nationality issues, the trend in international sports law is toward relaxing both durational residency requirements and the traditional objection to dual nationality. It is argued that the resulting opportunities for athletes and athlete-investing countries overshadow concerns about commodification of acquired athletes or confusion about national identity. This chapter is divided in 5 parts: introduction; The international framework; Nationality under the Olympic Charter; The nationality issue beyond the Olympic Charter; Country swapping or accelerated naturalization of athletes.
