Pelota is the general name given to a number of ball games that are played against a wall with bare hands, bats, rackets or baskets, perhaps most familiar to many people because of the jai alai variant of the game that features in the opening titles of the 1980s TV series Miami Vice. Basque pelota, which is popular in parts of Spain and France, spread across Spain’s former empire and is still played in countries including Cuba, Argentina, the Philippines and the US, but federations also exist in Sweden, India and the Netherlands. Th e pelota played at the Frontón Beti-Jai was joko garbi (meaning “clean game” in Basque), the forerunner of the modern game cesta punta, also known as jai alai (happy festival). Th e Bet i-Jai stadium could accommodate 4,000 spectators in its four-storey grandstand.

Erstmals erwähnt wurde das Faustballspiel im Jahr 240 n. Chr. von Gordianus, Kaiser von Rom. Im Jahr 1555 schreibt Antonio Scaino die ersten Regeln für den italienischen Volkssport, das "Ballenspiel". Johann Wolfgang von Goethe schreibt in seinem Tagebuch 1786 "Italienische Reise": "Vier edle Veroneser schlugen den Ball gegen vier Vicenter; sie trieben das sonst unter sich, das ganze Jahre, etwa zwei Stunden vor Nacht". 1870 wird das Spiel in Deutschland wieder entdeckt und der Deutsche Georg Heinrich Weber verfasst 1896 das erste deutsche Regelwerk. Populär wurde das Faustballspiel unter Turnvater Jahr in Deutschland und ist bis heute noch in den Turnvereinen als Ausklangspiel verankert.

Read, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School May, 2013 i Abstract A centenarian Basque soccer club, Athletic Club (Bilbao) is the ethnographic locus of this dissertation. From a center of the Industrial Revolution, a major European port of capitalism and the birthplace of Basque nationalism and political violence, Bilbao turned into a post-Fordist paradigm of globalization and gentrification. Beyond traditional axes of identification that create social divisions, what unites Basques in Bizkaia province is a soccer team with a philosophy unique in the world of professional sports: Athletic only recruits local Basque players. Playing local becomes an important source of subjectivization and collective identity in one of the best soccer leagues (Spanish) of the most globalized game of the world. This dissertation takes soccer for a cultural performance that reveals relevant anthropological and sociological information about Bilbao, the province of Bizkaia, and the Basques. Early in the twentieth century, soccer was established as the hegemonic sports culture in Spain and in the Basque Country; it has become a multi- billion business, and it serves as a powerful political apparatus and symbolic capital.

ABRAMS* When you are appointed as a neutral to decide over one thousand labor arbitration cases over a three-decade career, you tend to forget the facts of the individual disputes. How many different employees have lost their jobs for a variety of imaginative misdeeds? What did management do wrong this time that justified finding a violation of its contract with the union? How many Holiday Inn conference rooms have provided the settings for these hearings? Arbitration is a simple system of alternative dispute resolution that works,1 but it is too much to ask any neutral to recall too many of the details. There are exceptions to this rule of transient memory. A few cases stand out: the employee who struck his supervisor with a machete, 2 the nurse who 3 inadvertently allowed her patient (Mr.
