Resumen
En mayo del año pasado, con motivo del torneo mundial de Rusia 2018, publicamos una obra colectiva denominada: “Política Global y Fútbol: El deporte como preocupación de las Ciencias Sociales” (https://www.clacso.org.ar/libreria-latinoamericana/libro_detalle.php? d_libro=1413&pageNum_rs_libros=1&totalRows_rs_libros=1334).
Este libro enfoca el fútbol en la perspectiva de las Ciencias Sociales, en particular las Relaciones Internacionales. Gira en torno a la idea de que ese deporte dejó de tener una naturaleza estato-céntrica para adquirir ciudadanía global. Es así como se estudian tópicos tales como la geopolítica y economía del fútbol y su vinculación con los Estados, el problema de los nacionalismos ligados al deporte, la FIFA y los escándalos de corrupción, la diplomacia deportiva, la psicología del futbolista, entre otros.
Ese primer libro pretendía brindar aristas del fútbol tomado como objeto social, poniendo al descubierto aspectos relevantes que el espectador de un partido no está acostumbrado a ver.
Sin embargo, una vez que se publicó y que pasó Rusia 2018, caímos en la cuenta de que hacía falta otra obra que relacionara la política con ese deporte, sobre todo en términos de desigualdades. Nos motivó varios ejes que han sido constantes en la historia del fútbol, desgraciadamente no de carácter positivo, lejos de ello, y que sobresalieron en la última copa mundial. Nos referimos a capítulos oscuros como el machismo, la escasa presencia femenina, el racismo, la violencia en las canchas, y la inequidad entre
países pobres y ricos y su incidencia en la capacidad futbolística.
En este propósito subyacía a la vez un deseo analítico de presentar esas crudas realidades del lado oscuro de ese deporte, como propositivo: el fútbol bien manejado puede convertirse en un instrumento de desarrollo humano de personas y de sociedades.
Así nació esta aventura: “Discriminaciones socioculturales globales: entre el fútbol y la política”.
Una obra como esta es el resultado del esfuerzo conjunto de una serie de personas e instituciones. Sin lugar a duda, el aporte fundamental ha sido el de los autores y autoras, que han colaborado gratuitamente con este proyecto compartiendo el resultado de sus investigaciones. La Escuela de
Relaciones Internacionales de la Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, apoyó esta iniciativa. Finalmente, el Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (CLACSO) asumió la tarea de brindar su sello editorial y de darle amplia difusión a nivel regional.
Este trabajo se inscribe en el proyecto de investigación: 074-13 “El fenómeno de la integración regional en Relaciones Internacionales: una contribución teórica a la disciplina a partir de la crítica a la colonialidad del poder y el cosmopolitismo”, de la Escuela de Relaciones Internacionales y de la Vicerrectoría de investigación de la Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica.
In May last year, on the occasion of the Russia 2018 World Cup, we published a collective work entitled: "Global Politics and Football: Sport as a Social Science Concern" (https://www.clacso.org.ar/libreria- atinoamericana/libro_detalle.php?id_libro=141313&pageNum_rs_libros=1&totalRows_rs_libros=1334). This book approaches soccer in the perspective of the Social Sciences, in particular International Relations. International Relations in particular. It revolves around the idea that this sport is no longer of a sport ceased to have a state-centric nature in order to acquire global citizenship. Thus, topics such as the geopolitics and economics of soccer and its link with the States, the problem of nationalisms linked to sport, the nationalism linked to sport, FIFA and corruption scandals, sports diplomacy, the psychology of sport, and the diplomacy, the psychology of the soccer player, among others. This first book was intended to provide an overview of soccer as a social object, uncovering relevant aspects social object, revealing relevant aspects that the spectator of a match is not used to seeing. match spectators are not used to seeing. However, once it was published and Russia 2018 was over, we realized that another work was needed. that there was a need for another work that related politics to this sport, especially in terms of inequality sport, especially in terms of inequalities. We were motivated by several axes that have been constant in the history of soccer, unfortunately not of a positive nature, far from it, and that positive character, far from it, and which stood out in the last World Cup. We refer to dark chapters such as male chauvinism, the scarce presence of women, racism, violence on the fields, and the inequality between rich and poor countries and its impact on rich and poor countries and their impact on soccer ability. Underlying this purpose was both an analytical desire to present these stark realities of the dark side of soccer. the crude realities of the dark side of the sport, as well as a proposition: football, well managed well managed soccer can become an instrument for the human development of people and societies. development of people and societies. Thus was born this adventure: "Global sociocultural discriminations: between football and soccer and politics" was born.
