This book offers an in- depth examination of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup (2023 FWWC) hosted in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia. The 2023 FWWC was a landmark event in the history of women’s sport, in terms of audience, revenue, spectacle, and global reach, and has assumed wider significance beyond sport as a result of the controversial events immediately after the final game.Featuring the work of leading researchers from around the world, this book examines some of the key issues that arose during and after the 2023 FWWC. It provides an international perspective on the politics of women’s football and explores topics including media, fandom, Indigeneity, legacy policies, tourism, and the organisational politics and strategies of international federations. It also sheds light on the inherent sexism, gender inequalities, and biased media framings that remain pervasive in the women’s game.This is the second book on the 2023 FWWC from the editorial team of Adam Beissel, Julie E. Brice, Verity Postlethwaite, and Andy Grainger. It is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in sport studies, event studies, gender studies, sociology, or political science.
