This book provides a historical study of the beginnings of the
UEFA, demonstrating how the formation of the organisation was
linked to the decentralisation experienced by FIFA, the world
governing body of football. Vonnard examines why administrators
created an association that transcended the barriers of the Cold
War, and focused on the development of a network that promoted
football outside the constraints of international politics.
Finally, he emphasises the role UEFA played in the Europeanisation
of the people's game, and in the early years of the European
integration process. The research is based on a rich body of new
archival material from the UEFA and FIFA Documentation Centres, and
various European football federations, as well as reports from a
number of leading newspapers of the era, and interviews with
football personalities of the 1950s. It will be of interest to
students and scholars across the history of sport, international
relations, and European studies
