Football and fascism: the politics of popular culture in Portugal
tells the hidden history of football and discusses its political,
social and cultural foundations, during the longest running
authoritarian regime in Europe. Theoretically grounded on
Bourdieu's field theory, and using a multi-scalar methodology, this
award-winning research explores the political tensions between the
nationalization of sports envisaged by the Portuguese "New State"
and the integration of national football in a globalized urban
popular culture. Mobilizing unexplored archival sources, and a wide
array of primary materials, this groundbreaking work offers new
insight on the administrative structures of the corporativist
state, the making of an authoritarian cultural program, and the
relation between state institutions and civil society. Besides
broadening the scope of existing transnational histories of
football, this study also puts into question the conventional
geographies and political chronologies adopted in sports history.
