Football fans and football culture represent a unique prism through which to view contemporary society and politics. Based on in-depth empirical research into football in Poland, this book examines how fans develop political identities and how those identities can influence the wider political culture. It surveys the turbulent history of Poland in recent decades and explores the dominant right-wing ideology on the terraces, characterised by nationalism, ‘traditional’ values and anti-immigrant sentiment. As one of the first book-length studies of fandom in Eastern Europe, this book makes an important contribution to our understanding of society and politics in post-Communist states.Politics, Ideology and Football Fandom is an important read for students and researchers studying sport, politics and identity, as well as those working in sports studies and political studies covering sociology of sport, globalisation studies, East European politics, ethnic studies, social movements studies, political history and nationalism studies.

This book examines the topic of identity and collective memory in football fandom. Drawing on global research in history, sociology and political science, the book looks at how, where and why football fans and supporters’ groups introduce particular role models into their self-identity and performative narratives.The book presents original, cutting-edge research that illustrates the complex, multidimensional nature of the (re-)formulation of collective memory and the elevation of role models. It looks at the processes by which some supporters’ groups celebrate historical and contemporary figures – including political leaders, warriors, revolutionaries, or armed resistance groups – that they believe embody patriotic, regional or nationalist virtues, as well as supporters’ groups who define their patriotism in opposition to these figures. The book presents cases ranging from Ukrainian football ultras in the shadow of Russian aggression, and Jewish role models in Germany’s collective football memory, to the symbology of Che Guevara and Diego Maradona in Brazilian and Argentinian football, to hero formation and the myths of national identity in Australian football.This is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in the sociology, culture or politics of sport, or in fandom, identity, nationalism more broadly in sociology, political science or history.

This is the first book to focus on sports betting from a sociological perspective. Drawing on multi-stage sociological research, it deepens our understanding of an increasingly significant aspect of the contemporary sport industry.The book examines how bettors engage in sports betting – why they perceive it to be attractive, what betting represents to them and how they know how to bet or how they do so – describing the social phenomenon of betting and placing it within a broader cultural context. Drawing on original empirical research, it uses a practice theory that makes it possible to see in the actions of individuals both the influence of and the impact they have on culture, lifestyle and technology. With sports betting an increasingly controversial subject in wider society, this analysis helps us to understand betting as a complex phenomenon with connections to other areas of social life and how to better understand its impacts and how to mitigate its potential social harms.This is a fascinating read for anyone with an interest in the sociology of sport, sport business, economy, psychology, gambling, sociology, cultural studies, social anthropology or social policy.
