Until the business model is rejected as a complete failure, there will always be incremental tweaks to the system to keep it going. If FIFA and the IOC were to pay for the infrastructure needs of their events and guarantee their maintenance and "sustainability" for a decade after, then they would have less money, their events would be more integrated with the urban and social fabrics, and we might start caring about these events again. Until then, TV off, national team shirts into the dustbin of history, and radical engagement with local politics.

That way we might have some of the positive externalities of the events, without colossal wastes of money. Are there any such ridiculous proposals out there?

I also agree that there are other systems that could be worse. What was most clear to me is that the current system at FIFA has made it almost impossible to change and that was incredibly frustrating to see in person. It is indeed up to the reformers to offer an alternative and I am not sure what that would look like, but it is impossible to believe that meaningful reform will come from inside FIFA.

Yes, they are supporting the graft and corruption of Blatter's regime, but supporting someone who provides their own association with much needed cash - and unlike the major powers, they do need it - is hardly a surprise. That is politics, and it is up to the reformers to offer something better.<br /><br />Nor should you assume that the alternative is better. Let me tell you about how cricket is run and structured.<br /><br />The ICC is notoriously resistant to new members. Until 1965 it had just 7, when it introduced associate membership, to go with the full members. 50 years later it has 10 full members, 31 associates, and 65 affiliates. As a structure that represents their comparative development it is not without some merit, but it is grossly unequal:<br />- Only full members can play test cricket (the most valued form of the game), be part of the future tours program (around which all fixtures are made)<br />- Full members have automatic entry to the world cup - no qualifiers, or opportunities for smaller nations to play them<br />- On average, full members play less than 10 fixtures per year (in total) against the rest of the world. They play upwards of 150 amongst themselves.<br />- After a brief flirtation with globalising, the world cup has shrunk from 16, to just 10 teams in 2019. Only the threat of a legal challenge prevented the world cup being restricted to the full members only. Even then, 8 teams will be granted automatic places.<br />- The ICC is fabulously profitable - some $1.6b over the next 8 years. Of that, $215m will be distributed to 96 members, Around $570m will be distributed to the BCCI (India), another $300m to Australia and England. None of whom need it, but who had the power to insist on it. Cricket Brazil will receive $80,000<br />- Qualification tournaments are now available for barely half of all members - a cost saving move, apparently. The ICC Americas Women's tournament has been scrapped completely.<br />- There is no guideline for or any prospect of any new nations becoming full members.<br />- The ICC board consists of the 10 full members, and 3 associate representatives, a 2/3 majority of FMs is needed to pass votes. They don't bother to count the associate votes. As of July, an 5 member executive committee will be formed to inform the board, with representatives of India, Australia, England, and two others, further entrenching the inequities.<br /><br />There is no shortage of corruption in cricket administration, it just has a different character, a less global one, where the few have no interest in helping the many develop the sport. For all its faults, a lot of FIFA money still ends up going to the right places. And part of the reason for that is that the executive can't ignore smaller nations. There is probably a nice middle ground - rugby union is perhaps the closest - but don't underestimate the benefits of a properly global body. The alternative is far worse.Russhttp://idlesummers.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3594722532540683646.post-26235162905470856422014-06-14T14:31:55.472-03:002014-06-14T14:31:55.472-03:00:)

The express bus from the airport ...Thanks Gunther, <br />The express bus from the airport to Barra is a remnant of hte Doxaidis plan from the 1960s. It may have made sense then, at the height of Brazilian modernism, but it certainly does not make sense for the mobility crisis facing Rio in the 21st century. The bus companies are a mafia and have conspired to ruin the city for their own benefit. Brazilian love of cars has not helped either and rio´s streets continue to be choked with parked cars on the side of the roads and idling cars in the middle of them. The trains transported more people per day in the 60s and 70s than they do today and the light rail system that should extend through Rio´s Zona Sul and Tijuca neighbourhoods is only going to articulate the port zone to the port zone. This is a planning disaster that has eliminated any hope that Rio will be a more liveable city in the coming generations. Sad but true.

Ideally some form of express transport system would connect the airport (and Ilha do Governador) to Central do Brasil. There you would redistribute to the metro and buses.<br /><br />Rio’s public transportation system suffers from its excessive reliance on buses: (old, dangerous and uncomfortable). Its wide avenues would be ideal for a tram system. It could link Central do Brasil down to Leblon without the need for new tunnels. Much cheaper than the ongoing metro extension. When I mention this I always the reply: you don’t understand – the owners of the bus companies are more powerful in Rio than Petrobras…<br />Gunther Kirschnernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3594722532540683646.post-89649250237083051322014-05-06T07:57:33.993-03:002014-05-06T07:57:33.993-03:00Thanks Valeria, I think.

Life in Rio is extremely difficult for us at the moment and if you were to pay attention to what I write and say and do, I have been working to make Brazil better, pointing out the complexities of the situation on the ground and trying to get Brazil´s governing classes to listen to the criticisms. I understand that this may come across as Brazil-bashing but my intentions are to point out problems so they can be improved.
