Football is ubiquitous and a permanent fixture of modern life. More
than a sport, it frequently manifests in broader popular culture.
This book examines the significance of football for, and in,
popular culture across a wide range of forms, including music,
film, and social media. Football and Popular Culture plots a new
path in Football Studies, drawing on original research in countries
including England, Brazil, Germany, Canada, and Yugoslavia. The
book includes both historical and contemporary perspectives,
exploring some of the most important themes in the study of sport
and culture, including identity, nationalism, fandom, and protest.
It presents diverse case studies ranging from sonic violence among
Brazilian torcidas organizadas to fanled commemoration of the
Munich air disaster, which together help us to better understand
the intersection of sport, society, and popular culture. This is
fascinating reading for any student or researcher working in sport
studies, cultural studies, media studies, sociology, or
contemporary history.
