Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-43355-0 (ISBN)
It draws on original research in countries including England, Scotland, Ireland, Poland, Mexico, Algeria and Argentina and includes both historical and contemporary perspectives. It explores some of the most important themes in the study of sport, including sectarianism, migration, fan activism and national identity, and shows how football continues to be tied to political events, symbols and movements.
This is fascinating reading for any student or researcher working in sport studies, political science, sociology or contemporary history.
