Qatar and the 2022 FIFA World Cup - Politics, Controversy, Change (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022)

This book offers the first, full academic analysis of the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup. Adopting an international relations perspective, the authors critically interrogate the politics and controversy that has surrounded arguably the most controversial sports event ever. In doing so, this text offers up an imperative examination of Qatar's desired objectives through their investment in global sport and sports events, as well as provides readers with an academic explanation on why major event hosts - such as Qatar - receive so much international scrutiny in the pre-event stage of the event hosting process. On the back of this international scrutiny, this text also provides the first full analysis on how such negative scrutiny has forced Qatar to implement various social-political changes at home.
