The English Premier League (EPL) is one of the world's most
valuable and high-profile sports leagues, with millions of fans
around the globe. The 2016/17 season marked the 25th anniversary of
the EPL, providing a unique opportunity to reflect on how it has
contributed, both positively and negatively, to key developments in
football - and in sport and culture more broadly - at local,
national and global levels. Drawing on central themes in the social
scientific study of sport, such as globalisation, celebrity,
fandom, commercialisation, gender, sexuality and race, this book is
the first to assess the historical development and current
significance of the EPL. With original contributions from several
of the world's leading football scholars, it provides in-depth case
studies of the multifaceted role of the EPL in the contemporary
world of sport, as well as offering thought-provoking predications
for the future challenges that it will face. The English Premier
League: A Socio-Cultural Analysis is a fascinating read for any
sport studies student or scholar with a particular interest in
football and the sociology of sport.
