Download or read book The Western Balkans in the World written by Florian Bieber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-26 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed understanding of how different types of engagements impact upon the reform and EU integration of the Western Balkan region. It examines the influence of Russia, China, Turkey and the UAE in the region and analyses the range of existing links. Contributors offer an academic and multifaceted perspective of the role of external and non-Western actors in the region that goes beyond, on the one hand, the tendency of some Western decision makers to perceive all engagement by third powers as a sinister threat and, on the other, the view of regional governments of all external involvement as a boon coming at a time of Western neglect and reduced foreign investments. By looking at the importance of Russia, Turkey, China and the UAE in the Western Balkans, the book sheds light on one key arena of global competition, offers new insights on the strengths and weaknesses of Euro–Atlantic integration and advances our knowledge of foreign policy and its economic, social and security dimensions for small and medium-sized countries. It will be of interest to academics, postgraduate and research students, and think-tankers with research interest in IR and Southeast European Studies. European decision makers will also gain an insight into the extent of non-Western influence in the region.

Download or read book The emergence of footballing cultures written by Gary James and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Manchester football, by leading football historian Gary James, considers the sport’s emergence, development and establishment through to its position as the city’s leading team sport. The period from 1840 to 1919 saw football in Manchester develop from an inconsequential, occasionally outlawed activity, into a major business with a variety of popular football clubs and supporting industry. This book makes a distinct and original contribution to the historiography of sport. It is the first academic study into the development of association football in Manchester, and is directly linked to the current state of knowledge and debates within sports history on football’s origins. It adds regional focus to inform the wider debate, contextualising the growth of the sport in the city and identifies communities who propagated and developed football. Robust research should ensure that this becomes the benchmark study of regional football.

Download or read book Outcasts written by Steve Menary and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2012-12-05 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outcasts! The Lands That FIFA Forgot examines the tarnished reputation of world football's governing body, and the manner in which they exclude certain 'nations' from their organisation. For two years, Steve Menary traced the incredible journeys of the teams that FIFA refuse to recognise, usually for reasons of political expediency. Initially intrigued by the motivation of the no-hoper 'nations' and their players, Steve was drawn into a scene with a surprisingly positive approach to both the beautiful game and nationalism - cue the FIFI (Federation of International Football Independents) 'Wild Cup', staged in Germany prior to the FIFA World Cup in 2006, featuring teams from officially non-existent countries such as Zanzibar, Greenland, Tibet and Northern Cyprus. Meet the devil-may-care dentist-footballer from Greenland, kit manufacturers desperate to sponsor the Tibetan national football team, and Gibraltan players who could end centuries of Anglo-Spanish dispute over the rock.
