Abstract:
This book takes a critical look at the popular sport of football, examining its social, power-political, historical, and mythic structures. Football's entanglements with processes of power and politics are illuminated in various case studies through contributions from highly diverse perspectives: cultural anthropology, history (Mayan and Incan), politics, journalism, communication studies, gender studies, sports science, economics, and sociology. A worthwhile reading for not only football fans but also anyone with enthusiasm for unusual perspectives and surprising insights into history and the present. Jonas Bens (Dipl.-Jur., M.A.) ist Studienstipendiat der Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung und promoviert in Ethnologie an der Universität Bonn. Susanne Kleinfeld (M.A.) promoviert in Kulturwissenschaft an der Universität Bonn. Karoline Noack (Prof. Dr. phil.) lehrt Altamerikanistik und Ethnologie an der Universität Bonn.
