Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to provide, in an integrative manner, an overview of the status of research on the various impacts of manipulation on the global demand for sport. In particular, the effects of doping affairs, match fixing and corruption in professional sports on the demand for sport are considered. Although manipulation in sports and demand for sports are already extensively studied within the literature reviewed, how each of them is linked and how demand is affected by manipulation have been examined only very sparsely.
