ドイツにおけるスポーツ組織の諸実践からみた公共性：

いわゆる「私利私欲」の観点から

抄録

　The purpose of this study was to explore whether sport organizations in Germany can be regarded as public-sector concerns that ensure their public nature through affirmation of self-interest, and to clarify the practices of these organizations. Kato (2001) has explained the process of how publicness can be created via self-interest based on the logic that external relationships are built by thoroughly implementing internal values. This explanation is consistent with the concept of publicness suggested by Saito (2000), which considers the fact that mutual recognition of self-interest assures plurality of values. Finally, we explain how Saito's concept of publicness itself not only assures self-interest, but can also be regarded as a concept of publicness that is assured by self-interest. Next, we critically examine the views of Aruga (2006, 2011a, 2011b, 2013) regarding publicness based on self-interest. The results indicate that sport organizations in Germany can be regarded as public-sector associations that assure their public nature based on affirmation of self-interest. Finally, through interviews and their interpretation, it has become apparent that the practices of sport organizations in Germany include the practice of integration assuring plurality of values, the practice of building external relationships through implementation of internal values, and active practices toward authorities, such as the federal government or provincial governments. Overall, we can say that these practices can assure publicness based on self-interest.
