'The Europe of football' is one of the aspects of the history of
European integration that has generated the smallest amount of
academic research. However, the successive invention of sporting
traditions with a European calling since the Belle Epoque, followed
by the creation of various European cups during the interwar
constitute at the same time an original form of 'Europe-building'
and a lasting contribution to the creation of a European space and
spirit. The target of the authors in this book is to look back on
the genesis of European competitions that leads to the creation of
the European cups now organised by UEFA. It also seeks to show how
football has made possible the setting up of a partially
transnational space through sports journalism. Lastly, through the
study of the mobility and connections of football's actors, the
different chapters will also try to identify the various phases of
football's Europeanisation process on the old continent. It will
lay strong emphasis on the anthropological, cultural, economic,
political and social aspects of this history, notably the
production of body techniques, representations, emblematic figures,
consumption habits and their role in the larger context of
international relations. This book was previously published as a
special issue of Sport in History.
