Over the last two decades soccer has become a major institution
within the popular culture of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of
Israel. They have attained disproportionate success in this field.
Given their marginalization from many areas of Israeli society as
well as the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, such a prominent
Arab presence highlights the tension between their Israeli
citizenship and their belonging to the Palestinian people. Bringing
together sociological, anthropological and historical approaches,
Sorek examines how soccer can potentially be utilized by ethnic and
national minorities as a field of social protest, a stage for
demonstrating distinctive identity, or as a channel for social and
political integration. Relying on a rich combination of
quantitative and qualitative methods, he argues that equality in
the soccer sphere legitimizes contemporary inequality between Jews
and Arabs in Israel and pursues wider arguments about the role of
sport in ethno-national conflicts. Ideal for researchers and
graduate students.
