Sport&EU Review vol. 3, no. 2 for December 2011 has now been published. This number is richer than ever with a leading contribution by Ariel Reck and Daniel Geey on EU law aspects of the third-party ownership rule in English football. We also feature a forum on the ‘Murphy case’ and introduce a new FREE kick section. FREE stands for ‘Football Research in an Enlarged Europe’ and is the surprise winner of the call ‘The Anthropology of European integration’ issued by the 7th European Framework Programme for Research and Development (FP7) for 2011. Rounding off this issue are announcements of upcoming conferences and recently released books, several publication opportunities, and a new book review section.
At the end of this year we are saying goodbye to Samuli Miettinen who stepped down as co-editor of the Review due to increasing burdens in his personal and professional life. Samuli is one of the founding fathers of the Sport&EU Review and was co-editor from its establishment. His contribution to the Review has been invaluable and we would like to thank him deeply for all his kick-ups and efforts devoted to it.
We invite authors to consider contributing full papers, forum contributions, book reviews, or members’ announcements for publication in future issues of the Sport&EU Review; a full call for papers can be found here). Further, please consider applying to be a co-editor of the Review. Members’ contribution is vital to keep the Sport&EU Review running!
As always, contributions, comments and feedback is welcome at review@sportandeu.com.
