Bibliography.  aFootball, Power, and Politics in Europe deals with the politics and policy-making in the field of football in a comparative perspective. Translated into English for the first time, this book systematizes political actors and their footprints not only in the field of sports, but in the political system as a whole—an approach unique in the broader literature on the societal dimension of sports. It offers an empirical analysis of power exercise with sociological means (field approach of Bourdieu) and helps us to understand the enormous relevance of football/soccer in European societies, shedding light on how (elected and non-elected) power holders use norms inherent to the field of football. While the analysis extends to various European countries and to the international arena, Germany and German football are in the centre of interest. Combining insights from political science, sociology, anthropology, and of course, sports studies, this book ultimately seeks to ask: How ispolitical power exerted and controlled in a field where state institutions only have a limited leverage? Timm Beichelt is Professor of European Studies at European University Viadrina, Germany. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. . 0aComparative government. 0aPolitical science. 0aEuropexPolitics and government. 0aSportsxSociological aspects.14aComparative Politics.24aPolitical Science.24aEuropean Politics.24aSport Sociology.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303155165908iPrinted edition:z978303155167308iPrinted edition:z9783031551680 0aEurope in Transition: The NYU European Studies Series,x2946-364540uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-55166-6
