Problématique:
L'analyse sociologique et politologique des politiques publiques d'inclusion (PPIS) par le sport et l'éducation physique (EP) est régie par deux tendances doctrinales en opposition. D'un côté, l'humanisme de l'EP et du sport confère aux politiques d'éducation par le sport un ensemble de valeurs centrées sur la personne en faveur de l'inclusion et l'intégration. De l'autre, le réalisme politique confère aux politiques de l'EP un caractère non conventionnel renforçant la thèse de marginalisation.
En conséquence, le référentiel des politiques publiques d'inclusion par le sport et l'EP peine à réaliser les rééquilibrages nécessaires entre l'approche par les valeurs de l'humanisme et les impératives du réalisme politique.
