A Sociology of Football in a Global Context (Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society)

Association football is now the global sport, consumed in various ways by millions of people across the world. Throughout its history, football has been a catalyst as much for social cohesion, unity, excitement and integration as it can be for division, exclusion and discrimination. This book examines the historical, political, economic, social and cultural complexities of the game across Europe, Africa, Asia and North and South America.
