Resumen

La industria del deporte tiene actualmente una gran repercusión e impacto en nuestra sociedad, en áreas tan diversas como la de la economía, los medios de comunicación, la salud o la política. Dada esta importancia, con el paso de los años se ha ido generando un campo académico específico propio de la gestión del deporte. Un área de estudios que ha vivido un gran crecimiento en un corto período de tiempo. En este trabajo se realiza una revisión de aspectos relevantes que han ido configurando la identidad de la gestión del deporte como campo académico específico. Para ello, se ha recurrido a fuentes documentales de los autores más destacados del área de la gestión del deporte, poniendo especial atención a la construcción teórica del campo, sus principales revistas académicas y los principales temas y tendencias de las investigaciones. Las reflexiones finales del trabajo reflejan los principales avances que se han producido en este campo de estudio, así como las grandes oportunidades que actualmente genera la gestión del deporte para desarrollar una carrera académica y/o profesional y mirar con optimismo al futuro, donde sigue habiendo un gran espacio para su crecimiento.

The industry of sport currently has a big impact on our society, in areas as diverse as economics, mass media, health or politics. As a result of this new trend, a specific academic field, identified as ‘Sport Management’ has emerged in the past years. A study field that appears to have experienced a substantive growth over a short period of time. This paper has conducted a review on the relevant aspects that have shaped the identity of Sport Management as an academic field. For that purpose, documentary sources have been used as reference with a main focus in those produced by relevant authors of the Sport Management field, granting special attention to the theoretical construction of the field, its main academic journals, topics and research trends. The final reflections of this investigation show the main developments on this academic field, as well the broad opportunities that the Sport Management investigation field offers to develop an academic and/or professional career and to look into the future with optimism, as there is still a wide range of investigation areas to explore/develop under this theme.
