  • “This Time for Africa”: FIFA, Politics, and South Africa's Struggle for Human Rights Taylor Henley Duke Immerse: Freedom
    “This Time for Africa”: FIFA, Politics, and South Africa’s Struggle for Human Rights Taylor Henley Duke Immerse: Freedom Struggles in the 20th Century Professors Chafe and Shapiro April 22, 2013 Henley 1 When you fall get up, oh oh If you fall get up, eh eh Tsamina mina zangalewa Cuz this is Africa Tsamina mina, eh eh Waka waka, eh eh Tsamina mina zangalewa This time for Africa In 2010, for the first time in the history of organized international soccer, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) held its quadrennial World Cup on the continent of Africa. “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” the official song of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, reflects the enthusiasm of the entire continent as the world’s most anticipated sports tournament catapulted South Africa to the world soccer stage. Behind the song’s cheery façade, however, lay the implicit acknowledgement of decades of struggle for black liberation. Forty-nine years after South Africa’s first suspension from FIFA for its discriminatory practices, thirty-five years after FIFA formally expelled South Africa following the deadly Soweto uprising, eighteen years after FIFA formally readmitted South Africa, and sixteen years after South Africa’s first democratic elections, the world was finally officially recognizing South Africa—and the rest of the continent—as a major player in the politics of international soccer. The struggle for integration of South African soccer is a microcosmic representation of the overarching struggle for human rights in apartheid South Africa. The conflict between the pro-apartheid and race-segregated Football Association of Southern Africa (FASA) and the anti- apartheid and non-racial South African Soccer Federation (SASF) parallels, and in some cases Henley 2 precedes, that of the apartheid government and leading anti-apartheid political organizations.

It was an exceptional Pan- European organization in the context of the ongoing cold war since it almost exclusively granted memberships to football associations from Eastern Europe and the Iberian Peninsula, managing to tower above divisive ideological antagonisms. This article approaches the history of UEFA’s establishment from a global history perspective.

  • La Pelota No Se Mancha: Un Estudio Histórico Sobre El Desarrollo Y La Política En FIFA
    Universidad del Rosario Facultad de Ciencia Política y Gobierno Maestría en Estudios Políticos e Internacionales La pelota no se mancha: Un estudio histórico sobre el desarrollo y la política en FIFA David Esteban Susa Sánchez Director: Andrés Dávila Ladrón de Guevara Septiembre de 2015 Resumen: Esta investigación se centra en la Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) como organización política. Intenta responder dos interrogantes primordiales: 1) ¿cómo la FIFA ha constituido el poder que tiene actualmente y, así, hacerse del monopolio indiscutido del fútbol? Y 2) ¿cómo ha cambiado en el tiempo la política interna de FIFA y su vínculo con la política internacional? Para lograr esto, se realiza un estudio histórico, basado principalmente en documentos, que intenta caracterizar y analizar los cambios de la organización en el tiempo. Se enfatizan las últimas dos presidencias de FIFA, de João Havelange y Joseph Blatter, como casos de estudio. Esta reflexión es guiada por sustentos teóricos, basados en las disciplinas de la Ciencia Política y las Relaciones Internacionales. Esto con el fin de encuadrar los cambios de FIFA en la transformación simultanea de las relaciones internacionales. Así, se busca cuestionar la supuesta neutralidad de FIFA y su posición actual, normalmente dada como natural. Summary: This research is focus in the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) as a political organization. It tries to respond two main questions: 1) How FIFA has constituted the power it has now and, so, the undisputed monopoly over soccer? And 2) How the internal politics of FIFA has changed and its link with international politics? To achieve this, the current research develops an historical study, based mainly in documents, that tries to characterize and to analyze the transformation of the organization in time.

  • Elite Level Refereeing in Men's Football
    Elite Level Refereeing in Men’s Football: A Developmental Sociological Account Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester By Sharon Colwell Department of Sociology University of Leicester March, 2004 Abstract This thesis explores ‘when’, ‘how’ and ‘why’ refereeing and refereeing problems have developed in elite level English men’s football. The study, which is framed by a figurational or process sociological approach traces the origins and development of match officiating from the mid 19th century through to the 2000-01 Premier League season. The analysis begins with the introduction of ‘third parties’ to oversee the early football-like games and concludes with a discussion of the key issues raised in interviews with elite level refereeing personnel. In between, the development of various administrative bodies which have been concerned with refereeing practices and problems, such as the FA, the Football League, FIFA and the Referees’ Union are discussed. Throughout, I explore changes in officiating through an in-depth analysis of the FA Laws of the Game and critically assess what these Laws ‘tell us’ about the way football was played from the mid 19th century. This study then considers the changing status of match officials through the 20th century and explores the impact of television and newspaper coverage on our perceptions of refereeing problems in the contemporary game. Throughout, I analyse the dynamic power relationships between players, administrators, fans, media personnel and referees in order to develop our understanding of how refereeing problems have emerged. Throughout I contextualise match officials within the broader relational network of which they are a part in order to understand how referees have been constrained and/ or enabled by other members of the football ‘world’.

  • Fifa, Politics, and South Africa's Struggle For
    Michigan Journal of History Fall 2013 Volume X Issue I 2 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Dear Readers, It is with great excitement that the Michigan Journal of History publishes its 10th Issue. We had a record 65 submissions this term, more than tripling the number from last term. The Journal received submissions from students at elite universities all over the country, ranging from topics on the Middle East to the Crusades and education in China. To those who submitted, we say thank you. The quality of writing was spectacular, your ideas intellectually challenging and distinctly unique, making our decision on which pieces to choose quite difficult. I also want to say thank you to our amazing staff, who adapted quickly to the numerous changes within the organization, and brought excitement and energy to every meeting and editing session. A special thanks goes out to Managing Editor Emily Riippa; she is the glue that keeps us together, doing most of the behind the scenes work that most people don’t recognize. Her work ethic is undeniable, her passion for history incredible, and I am very excited to continue working with her next term. Next term we hope that the incredible outreach continues. To see so many of our peers creating pieces that challenge the normative and seek to illustrate untouched viewpoints is thrilling, and we look forward to reading the next round of submissions. Sincerely, Anna Gwiazdowski Editor-in-Chief, Michigan Journal of History 3 MICHIGAN JOURNAL OF HISTORY EDITORIAL BOARD, 2013-2014 Anna Gwiazdowski Editor-in-Chief
