However, the development of football in Lithuania like other branches of sport was interrupted by World War One. As it was over, Lithuania declared its independence in 1918. Lithuania started developing its physical culture and sport system on the basis of the experience of other countries. The Lithuanians, who had spread around the world, came back to Lithuania and became the biggest enthusiasts of the development of sport. They developed various branches of sport and sport games in Lithuania. Although the attitude of most Lithuanians towards sport was negative, the Section of Shooters started functioning in spring 1919, the Lithuanian Union of Sport was established and the first public performances of sportspeople took place (History of Lithuanian Physical Culture and Sport, 1996). Goal – to analyze the development of football in Lithuania from the fountainheads to the participation of the Lithuanian selection in the Olympic Games of Paris. 7 Fountainheads of football People started playing football in Lithuania in the beginning of the XX century. V. Petrauskas established the sport association “Aras“ in 1907. „We wrote the statute of a sport organization from Mintauja, edited it for the adaptation of the life conditions in Kaunas and submitted to Governor Veriovkin for the approval (...) the first sport organization, which was accessible to everybody, rose in Kaunas with big difficulties“ (Petrauskas, 1933). The organization united 258 members and cultivated weightlifting, track-and-field athletics, wrestling, gymnastics and football. It organized two football teams in Kaunas: Geltonasis Erelis and Mėlynasis Erelis (Poviliūnas, 2010). V. Petrauskas wrote about the rise of football in his memories (1933): “We played sports successfully and attained 1911 when football developed in all big cities briskly. We also organized two teams: yellow and blue ones. The participants trained intensely. In the middle of July 1911 we became brave and invited the players from Vilnius to Kaunas. The first public match was impressive: a large crowd gathered and had a very negative influence on our players. The men were unused to showing themselves in public, chafed, distressed and were even more unsuccessful. We lost to the players from Vilnius 10:5“ (Petrauskas, 1933). 3 clubs – „Sakalas“, „Antakalnis“ and „Žvėrynas“ played football in Vilnius at that time. Vilnius Football League was established on the initiative of A. A. Konas, chairman of the association “Sakalas”. Soon “In 1913 the Germans organized an Olympiad in the East-Prussian region and invited the football team from Kaunas. There were a few thousands of spectators. The match resulted in 2:2, but one goal was uncounted for the Lithuanians...“ (Petronis, 1933). The development of football in Lithuania was interrupted by World War One. In spite of a complicated political and economic situation in Lithuania after World War One, football revived again in 1919. However, the years 1919, 1920 were still an epoch of random matches. There was no special place for doing sports or playing football and according to S. Garbačiauskas „Football and track-and- field athletics championships or even international football matches 8 were organized illegally, on a strange pasture (...) There was much trouble with carrying football goals and tools from Vytautas Park, setting them and bringing back to the park after matches (...) Sometimes there were matches on Saturdays and Sundays. Nobody wanted to bring the goals back to Vytautas Park after the Saturday event and they were left in the Oak-Wood on the meadow. There were no goals on Sunday; they may have been stolen by the pasture lessees and used for fuel“. (Narbutas, 88). Moreover, “when playing football, there were difficulties both with a lack of playgrounds and money” (Narbutas, 115). The first football match was played in 1919. The team of the Lithuanian Union of Sport (LSS) (the first sport organization of the independent Lithuania established in Kaunas in May 1919) and the team of the aviation officers met in Vytautas Park. LSS won the match 4:2. There were also a few matches in 1920. In relation with an instable political situation, there were more matches in 1921 and 1922. Even several tens of matches were organized in 1921. The truth is that the participating teams were weak both their composition and education. The number of teams with different names increased in 1921: civil officers, schools, clubs and unions. However, all these teams did not have any interrelations, played each separately and had even several matches against each other. Matches were not organized in 1921, no championships were organized and the matches were just actual. LFLS and the International team can be noticed among all these matches (or the team of diplomats). The team of diplomats consisted of: R. Lasič (Serbian), Palmquist (Finnish), Sala (Italian), V.D.Leoff

  • Theory of the Beautiful Game: the Unification of European Football
    Scottish Journal of Political Economy, Vol. 54, No. 3, July 2007 r 2007 The Author Journal compilation r 2007 Scottish Economic Society. Published by Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 9600 Garsington Road, Oxford, OX4 2DQ, UK and 350 Main St, Malden, MA, 02148, USA THEORY OF THE BEAUTIFUL GAME: THE UNIFICATION OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL John Vroomann Abstract European football is in a spiral of intra-league and inter-league polarization of talent and wealth. The invariance proposition is revisited with adaptations for win- maximizing sportsman owners facing an uncertain Champions League prize. Sportsman and champion effects have driven European football clubs to the edge of insolvency and polarized competition throughout Europe. Revenue revolutions and financial crises of the Big Five leagues are examined and estimates of competitive balance are compared. The European Super League completes the open-market solution after Bosman. A 30-team Super League is proposed based on the National Football League. In football everything is complicated by the presence of the opposite team. FSartre I Introduction The beauty of the world’s game of football lies in the dynamic balance of symbiotic competition. Since the English Premier League (EPL) broke away from the Football League in 1992, the EPL has effectively lost its competitive balance. The rebellion of the EPL coincided with a deeper media revolution as digital and pay-per-view technologies were delivered by satellite platform into the commercial television vacuum created by public television monopolies throughout Europe. EPL broadcast revenues have exploded 40-fold from h22 million in 1992 to h862 million in 2005 (33% CAGR).

  • Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin's United Russia
    VLADIMIR VLADIMIROVICH PUTIN’S UNITED RUSSIA: THE HOW AND WHY OF RUSSIA’S NEW PARTY OF POWER THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Daniel James Sell, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Thesis Committee: Approved By Professor Trevor Brown, Adviser _____________________________ Adviser Professor David Hoffmann Slavic and East European Studies Graduate Program Copyright by Daniel James Sell 2008 ABSTRACT This paper serves to study the new ‘party of power,’ United Russia, that has emerged in the Russian Federation with Vladimir Vladimorovich Putin as the head of this party. It will look at what exactly a party of power is, and how Putin was able to solidify power in the country in the office of the president and transfer this power to United Russia. This paper looks at factors, such as the fact that Russia has a hybrid regime in place, which made it possible for the party of power to emerge, thus providing a small roadmap on how to create a party of power. Finally, this paper shows areas where Putin and his party of power could lose strength and what might possibly happen in regards to the political situation in the country if this were to happen. ii Dedicated to my father iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank my advisor, Trevor Brown, for support, encouragement, enthusiasm, flexibility in working long-distance on this project, and patience. Without his help, this thesis would not have been possible. I would also like to thank David Hoffmann, who so graciously agreed to serve on my thesis defense committee.

It is a real honor for us to be able to welcome Antonio Guterres, the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, here to the Brookings Institution. I don't think he needs much of an introduction, but let me just say a couple of brief words. I first had the opportunity to meet him in the context of another activity that he's been involved in particularly before he took on this job which was the Club of Madrid, which is a group of former presidents and prime ministers and Antonio is one of the leading voices in that esteemed group who had a vision and a mission and a mandate and I think he's brought to everything he's done in politics and now at the U.N. in one of the most important jobs on the frontlines of helping people who are in really the most dire circumstances cope and resettle their lives.
