View Rights Portal»Die fünfte Ecke« erzählt eine Liebesgeschichte, die 1926 in der russischen Provinzstadt Charkow ihren Anfang nimmt. Für Borja, den Ich-Erzähler, ist Katja die große, einzige Liebe. »Mit siebzehn Jahren wurde ich blind und taub vor Liebe. Bis heute kann ich mir nur schwer vorstellen, daß ich mich von ihr befreit habe. Dieses Fieber schüttelte mich fünfzehn Jahre lang hintereinander ohne Unterbrechung, bis zum Beginn des Krieges 1941.« Noch Jahrzehnte später, als alter Mann, kann er sie nicht vergessen.
The book examines the transformation of European football in recent years by focusing on the impact of Europe in general and the EU in particular on the way that the game has evolved in a broad cross section of European states. The book brings together two significant research agendas: first, that on the governance of sport in Europe/the European Union; secondly, that within European integration studies on 'Europeanisation' (most commonly understood at the process of change in the domestic arena resulting from European integration). The concept of Europeanisation and in particular' top down' Europeanisation is used to shape the individual country case studies. Other transformational factors such as globalization are also assessed. The three chapters in the introductory section set the context within which the transformation of European football has occurred with particular emphasis on the role of UEFA and EU institutions. The ten country studies in the central part of the book include the five leading football nations in Europe and smaller countries that are facing new challenges in the competitive environment of modern European football. They include an example of a country that is a recent accession state and one outside the EU. What emerges from these chapters is both the shaping influence of Europeanisation but also the extent to which it is countered and modified by national culture and structures. What is also noticeable the sense of decline amongst some of the small and even larger footballing nations in the continent. This book will be of interest to students of European politics, sports governance and football, it also represents a substantial contribution to the debate on Europeanisation. ;

We‘re in heaven when we‘re in love, admire the stars and Milky Way on crystal-clear nights, and look up to attempt to forecast the weather. We have always been fascinated and shaped by the sky, and even though science may have demythologised it, nonetheless it uses evernew technology to gaze deeper and farther into the universe and is constantly making new discoveries. Rolf Heilmann picks us up with our everyday experiences and questions about the sky, and takes us along on a fascinating journey through the times – from the worlds of the gods and art, philosophy and technology to the exploration of nearby and distant galaxies and the last secrets of science.
