Football is unquestionably the world's most popular and influential
sport. There is no corner of the globe in which the game is not
played or followed. More countries are affiliated to FIFA,
football's governing body, than to the United Nations. The sport
has therefore become an important component of our social,
cultural, political and economic life. The Routledge Handbook of
Football Studies is a landmark work of reference, going further
than any other book in considering the historical and contemporary
significance of football around the world. Written by a team of
leading sport scholars, the book covers a broad range of
disciplines from history, sociology, politics and business, to
philosophy, law and media studies. The central section of the book
examines key themes and issues in football studies, such as the
World Cup and international competition, governance and ownership,
fandom and celebrity. The concluding section offers in-depth
surveys of the culture and organisation of football in each of the
regional confederations, from UEFA to CONCACAF. This book is
fascinating reading for all serious football fans and an essential
resource for students and scholars of sport studies, as well as any
practitioner or policymaker working in football. .
