    France and the Dissolution of Yugoslavia Christopher David Jones, MA, BA (Hons.) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History August 2015 © “This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution.” Abstract This thesis examines French relations with Yugoslavia in the twentieth century and its response to the federal republic’s dissolution in the 1990s. In doing so it contributes to studies of post-Cold War international politics and international diplomacy during the Yugoslav Wars. It utilises a wide-range of source materials, including: archival documents, interviews, memoirs, newspaper articles and speeches. Many contemporary commentators on French policy towards Yugoslavia believed that the Mitterrand administration’s approach was anachronistic, based upon a fear of a resurgent and newly reunified Germany and an historical friendship with Serbia; this narrative has hitherto remained largely unchallenged. Whilst history did weigh heavily on Mitterrand’s perceptions of the conflicts in Yugoslavia, this thesis argues that France’s Yugoslav policy was more the logical outcome of longer-term trends in French and Mitterrandienne foreign policy. Furthermore, it reflected a determined effort by France to ensure that its long-established preferences for post-Cold War security were at the forefront of European and international politics; its strong position in all significant international multilateral institutions provided an important platform to do so.

    Champions d’Europe, champions du monde LES JOUEURS MAGHRÉBINS EN ÉQUIPE DE FRANCE L’histoire des joueurs algériens, marocains, tunisiens et « pieds-noirs » en équipe de France de 1924 à 2016 Après l’euphorie déclenchée par le Onze « Black-Blanc-Beur » victorieux de 1998, des millions de Français ont été choqués par les propos sur les trop nombreux joueurs « d’origine étrangère » en équipe de France et, plus récemment, par les comportements discriminants dont les stades sont trop souvent les témoins. Pour y répondre, l’Histoire est la meilleure des solutions. Elle raconte la saga des joueurs d’origine maghrébine chez les Bleus qui, depuis 1924, ont conduit deux fois à la victoire en Europe (1984 et 2000), une fois à la conquête du titre mondial (1998) et une fois à celle du titre olympique (1984). C’est l’histoire des joueurs, de toutes confessions, de toutes origines (kabyle, arabe, européenne), issus ou non de l’immigration et originaires des trois pays du Maghreb (Algérie, Maroc et Tunisie) qui ont écrit les plus belles heures du Onze de France. Elle raconte aussi celle des « populations maghrébines » et des immigrations en France. Enfi n, elle rappelle les destins de joueurs emblématiques, originaires du Maghreb, symboles forts à travers les siècles : Sarah M’Barek pour l’égalité des sexes, Zidane pour l’intégration, Mekhloufi pour l’Indépendance, Sahnoun pour les harkis, Fontaine pour les pieds-noirs, et Ben M’Barek pour l’époque coloniale. Une immense saga sur près d’un siècle qui raconte l’histoire d’une nation métisse au cœur de l’histoire de France, avec toutes ses aspirations, ses confl its et ses débats, au moment de l’organisation en France de l’Euro 2016, tandis que les enjeux identitaires n’ont jamais été aussi présents.

    THE MODERN FOOTBALLER I S S U E T H R E E A Get Football Group Publication - © 2020 INSIDE COVER EDITOR'S NOFeTrenc PEuskas, 1960s TALK of a European super league is nothing new. As early as 1964, legendary football writer Brian Glanville wrote a major article in World Soccer carrying the headline “Economic reality will force European League.” Speculation has intensified of late. In November 2018, Football Leaks published a document allegedly detailing a mooted 16 team breakaway division of Europe's biggest clubs, while The New York Times reported Real Madrid Florentino Pérez met with other club presidents to propose a 40 team, two tiered closed league system in December 2019. Just this month, Liverpool and Manchester United were reported as leading an initiative to reform the Premier League - feasibly a step towards a super league. In one respect, we already have a European Super League - it’s called the UEFA Champions’ League. Recently however, regardless of such proposed structural changes that would decimate Europe’s football pyramid for the financial benefit of a handful of club presidents, European football has sleep walked into the processes that would drive such a breakaway structure. AS Monaco and OGC Nice were pioneers. A production line was established as both clubs implemented a scouting network that trawled the world's most cost effective footballing backwaters. Those young players were nurtured in a league well-suited to the progression of burgeoning talent and then sold to the cash rich Premier League or elite clubs for a huge profit. It became their express aim to find, develop and - crucially - sell young footballers.
