Football club Geopolitics - Nouvelle édition
Préface de Pascal Boniface Pourquoi l’Euro de football s’est-il construit dans les pas de la construction européenne ? Quelles confrontations sont impossibles entre certains pays, comme celles entre la Russie et l’Ukraine, ou encore l’Arménie et l’Azerbaïdjan ? Quels matchs ont dépassé l’enjeu sportif pour devenir une « guerre » géopolitique ? Ou, à l’inverse, comment le football peut-il être un outil d’émancipation pour les peuples ? Voire participer à de véritables stratégies politiques pour les pays, comme l’Arabie saoudite et le Qatar dans leur volonté de mieux paraître aux yeux du monde ? Dans un style plaisant et précis, l’auteur nous raconte 22 histoires dans lesquelles le ballon rond s’est retrouvé au coeur des relations internationales. Il nous montre ainsi que la géopolitique n’est ni rébarbative, ni réservée aux diplomates chevronnés, et que le football peut dépasser le simple cadre du terrain.

In a pleasant and precise style, the author tells us 22 stories in which the round ball found itself at the heart of international relations. He shows us that geopolitics is neither boring nor reserved for seasoned diplomats, and that soccer can go beyond the pitch.
