How did Mussolini manage to use the 1934 World Cup to benefit his fascist regime? How did North Korea, with its surprising team, reveal itself to the world in 1966? Why did the match between Kuwait and France in 1982 lead to the first diplomatic arbitration? What was behind the scenes of the 1998 ‘peace match’ between the US and Iran? How and why did Qatar win the 2022 World Cup?
In this second volume, Kévin Veyssière tells 22 new stories in which the round ball, in the particular context of the World Cup, has found itself at the heart of international political issues, from its beginnings in 1900 to the 2022 edition in Qatar. The author explains how, for the past 120 years, the greatest sporting competition has always been a tool for influence and power games.
