This systematic historical and sociological study of the phenomenon
of football hooliganism examines the history of crowd
disorderliness at association football matches in Britain and
assesses both popular and academic explanations of the problem. The
authors' study starts in the 1880s, when professional football
first emerged in its modern form, charting the pre and inter-war
periods and revealing that England's World Cup triumph formed a
watershed. The changing social composition of football crowds and
the changing class structure of British society is discussed and
the genesis of modern football hooliganism is explained by tracing
it to the cultural conditions and circumstances which reproduce in
young working-class males an interest in a publicly expressed
aggressive masculine style.
