"This monograph explores a range of conflict of interest situations in the
context of the 2010 World Cup. The analogy captured in the title

and ‘referee’ over key decisions about, for example, tenders or stadia
location. In
other words, fair play should preside both on the field and off.

of interest
situations and corruption. First, the sheer financial magnitude and scope
of public-funded infrastructure projects is a factor likely to

of billions of rands in infrastructure, logistics, communications and security"
