This book employs men's football as a lens through which to investigate questions relating to immigration, racism, integration and national identity in present-day Sweden. Specifically, this study explores if professional football serves as a successful model of multiracialism/multiculturalism for the rest of Swedish society to emulate.

Carl-Gustaf Scott received his PhD in Modern European/Scandinavian History from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. His research examines contemporary Swedish history in a broader, comparative, European context, and his work has appeared in, among other places, The Journal of Contemporary History, European History Quarterly, Cold War History, The Scandinavian Journal of History, and Social History and Immigrants and Minorities.
