Soccer - The beautiful game - Foot, guerres et politique - Des footballeurs face au destin

Description

Book Synopsis: Sport le plus médiatisé au monde, le football a toujours représenté un enjeu de pouvoir. A la confluence d'intérêts économiques, diplomatiques, politiques et sociaux, il a été l'étendard de divers régimes l'utilisant pour « unir » leur nation sous l'oeil complice de la FIFA. De Sanaa à Katmandou, de Fidel Castro aux Khmers rouges en passant par le fils aîné de Saddam Hussein, « The Beautiful Game » retrace le destin entrelacé de ces entraîneurs et joueurs lancés à la poursuite d'un ballon malgré l'exil, le génocide, la guerre ou la torture. Au fil d'anecdotes et entretiens improbables, mêlant géopolitique, foot, culture, joies et drames humains, Romain Molina dresse l'histoire de ces héros de l'ombre, courant malgré eux au-devant de grands dangers ; derrière leur passion se cache souvent une tragédie.
