Football and Risk - Trends and Perspectives (Hardcover)

Academic importance: The study of football and risk remains as important as ever in the social life and a critical examination of this relationship will touch the surface of wider trends (and risks) in the 2020s and beyond. Topicality: Risk and football are two elements that feature constantly in public debates. The book discusses highly topical issues such as the FIFA World Cup's expansion to 48 teams, the English Premier League's 'Project Restart' (following Covid-19) and environmental risks in context of the 2026 World Cup in Mexico, Canada, and the USA. Future-oriented: A short and accessible text that aims to provide directions for future research in the field. It will resonate well with undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers developing projects in this area. Newness and originality: There are currently very few - if any - books that take a sociological approach to 'global risks' specifically situated in football.
