The 2018 annual conference of the Sport Sociology Section in the German Society of Sport Science (Deutsche Vereinigung für Sportwissenschaft e. V., dvs) will summarize the current status of research regarding the social functions of sport clubs and federations, specifically here in Germany, and will explain how sport sociology contributes to the understanding of these societal functions. The conference will take place at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin from 12 to 14 September 2018. It will be chaired by Prof. Dr. Sebastian Braun. It primarily targets sport sociologists, but is also intended to offer a platform for exchanging specialist ideas and experience with sports federations, the world of politics and administration.
