Within an effective field theory framework we study heavy-quark--antiquark systems with a typical distance between the heavy quark and the antiquark smaller than $1/\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$. A suitable definition of the potential is given within this framework, while non-potential (retardation) effects are taken into account in a systematic way. We explore different physical systems. Model-independent results on the short distance behavior of the energies of the gluonic excitations between static quarks are obtained. Finally, we show how infrared renormalons affecting the static potential get cancelled in the effective theory.
