Are you fascinated by the interplay of sport and international politics? Join our MSc Diplomacy and Sport to explore the complexities and possibilities of this dynamic relationship, studying in the UK’s political and sporting hub.
International relations and sport intersect in profound ways. From individual athletes championing gender equality to nation states competing to host prestigious sporting events for diplomatic prestige, sport has an international dimension and influence.
On this master’s, you’ll explore some of the pressing questions facing governments and sports organisations today. Why and how do states engage in sportswashing? What's the intersection between sovereign investment strategies and sport, and how do states use sport to enhance their position and power?
