  • Governance Relationships in Football Between Management and Labour Roitman - Governance Relationships Marston, C
    Building on the two prior CIES governance studies, this is the third FIFA-mandated research analysing governance relationships in football. This book focuses on those Editions CIES between football’s employers (clubs, leagues and even NAs) and its labour force. Based on a sample of forty countries across all six confederations and questionnaires from players’ associations, leagues and national associations, this research surveys and compares the diverse ‘management-labour’ approaches and scenarios in both men and women’s professional football worldwide. GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS The authors place a special focus on players’ associations and highlight the variety of IN FOOTBALL BETWEEN structures found world-wide. The findings here contribute to a better understanding MANAGEMENT AND LABOUR of the systems, models and relationships in place around the globe when it comes to PLAYERS, CLUBS, LEAGUES & NATIONAL ASSOCIATIONS ‘management’ and ‘labour’. This book explores the representation of Kevin Tallec Marston, Camille Boillat & Fernando Roitman players within decision-making structures at club, league and national association level as well as the regulatory contexts and negotiation instruments linking players and management - such as collaborative agreements/MoUs, CBAs, minimum contract requirements and dispute resolution. In addition, this study provides a first ever global exploration of some of the inner workings of players’ associations and an overview of the key issues in professional football from the player’s perspective. The final chapter offers several models and frameworks illustrating the governance relationships between players and management. All three authors work at the International Centre for Sport Studies (CIES). Kevin Tallec Marston earned his PhD in history and works as research fellow and academic projects manager.

    POLICY BRIEF November 2005 ANTHONY BUBALO Football Diplomacy Research Fellow Tel. +61 2 8238 9140 [email protected] What is the problem? While Australian governments have successfully built pragmatic ties with Asian leaders, a popular dimension to our engagement with Asia has in many respects been missing. This didn’t matter greatly in the past, but today public opinion is increasingly a factor in foreign policy. Governments must influence individuals as well as elites to address global problems such as terrorism and disease and ‘branding’ has become critical to a state’s ability to attract trade, investment and international political support. But a new opportunity to deepen people-to-people links with Asia has arrived in the form of Australia’s recent admission into the Asian Football Confederation. For the first time, Australia will have a significant sporting relationship with Asia. The question is, how can Australia best use this opportunity to enhance its regional image and engagement? What should be done? Here are five ideas for how government, business and the broader community might leverage Australia’s new sporting relationship with Asia: • Football Federation Australia (FFA) should work with business and government to establish a ‘Football Asia Council’ to coordinate commercial, cultural, and public diplomacy programs with Australian participation in Asian football competitions. • FFA, business and government should launch a coordinated effort through this Council to develop football-based tourism and travel. • Austrade should establish a ‘Football Business Club Australia’ to facilitate commercial networking opportunities during matches between Australian and LOWY INSTITUTE FOR Asian teams. FFA should also consider initiating a tri-nations series with Japan INTERNATIONAL POLICY and South Korea, providing an opportunity for greater commercial, cultural, and 31 Bligh Street political engagement with these key countries.

  • Fotball-VM Som Verktøy I Qatars Merkevare-Strategi
    Expect Amazing: Fotball-VM som verktøy i Qatars merkevare-strategi Charlotte Lysa MØNA4592 - Masteroppgave i Midtøsten- og Nord-Afrikastudier 30 studiepoeng Vår 2015 Institutt for kulturstudier og orientalske språk Universitetet i Oslo II © Charlotte Lysa 2015 Expect Amazing: Fotball-VM som verktøy i Qatars merkevare-strategi http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Grafiske Senter, Oslo III IV Sammendrag Da Irak i 1990 invaderte Kuwait ble det for alvor klart for de små, rike sjeikdømmene ved Persiabukta omringet av stormakter som Saudi Arabia, Irak og Iran hvor utsatt de var. For Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani i Qatar var det tydelig at noe måtte gjøres, og etter å ha tatt makten fra sin far i 1995, satt han i gang en rekke tiltak for å møte denne trusselen. Reformer i utenrikspolitikken var sentralt, men også opprettelsen av Al Jazeera, byggingen av en nasjonal identitet og store investeringer internasjonalt var blant den nye emirens tiltak. Anonymitet kan være fatalt for stater i den situasjonen som Qatar var, og samlet sett utgjør disse tiltakene en merkevare-strategi designet for å øke Qatars synlighet internasjonalt. Det mest virkningsfulle elementet i denne strategien, det som virkelig bidro til å sette Qatar på det globale kartet var tildelingen av fotball-VM 2022 i 2010. Qatar fremstår på ingen måte som en fotballnasjon. Landet er på størrelse med et gjennomsnittlig norsk fylke, og med en befolkning på i overkant av 2 millioner, hvorav kun 20 prosent er statsborgere er det nærmest umulig å i det hele tatt bygge opp et fotballandslag av betydning. I tillegg er engasjementet rundt nasjonal fotball nærmest fraværende blant qatarere.

  • The Worldwide Diffusion of Football: Temporal and Spatial Perspectives
    1 The Worldwide Diffusion of Football: Temporal and Spatial Perspectives John S. Hill, John Vincent, & Matthew Curtner-Smith, University of Alabama Abstract The purpose of this study is to evaluate how football evolved from a village activity in rural England to become the world’s premier sport played in 208 countries. First, its diffusion in England is evaluated over time as well as how it spread spatially across the nation. Second, soccer’s diffusion worldwide is analyzed both temporally and geographically to assess the rate at which the sport spread and how its adoption moved from nation to nation across the major regions of the world. Principal findings were that 40 years was the time taken for soccer to take root nationally and regionally; and that spatially, east-west diffusion occurred first across regions before its spread northwards and southwards. The principal reasons for its adoption worldwide were the game’s simplicity, flexibility, and its appeal to common global values of teamwork, fair play, and equality. Globalization synergies are key factors accounting for the sport’s worldwide popularity. Introduction Globalization became dominant in the 20th century as world nations began to interact economically with greater frequency, exchanging commodities, goods, and technologies. But while commercial transactions were its driving force, there were also cultural exchanges as Western influences infiltrated to foreign countries to affect country cultures (Hill, 2009). One of these influences was sport, and of all Western cultural exports, sport has perhaps become the most significant for three reasons. First, in a world characterized by increasing industrialization and competition, sport has emerged as a key safety valve for relieving the social and economic stress induced by increasingly competitive societies (Madeiro, 2007).
