Описание:
This special issue addresses the complex reality of English community football organisations, including Football in the Community (FitC) schemes, which have been attending to social agendas, such as social inclusion and health promotion. The positioning of football as a key agent of change for this diverse range of social issues has resulted in an increase in funding support. Despite the increased availability of funding and the (apparent) willingness of football clubs to adopt such an altruistic position within society, there remains limited empirical evidence to substantiate football's ability to deliver results.
This book explores the current role of a football and football clubs in supporting and delivering social inclusion and health promotion to its community and seeks to examine the philosophical, political, environmental and practical challenges of this work. The power and subsequent lure of a football club and its brand is an ideal vehicle to entice and capture populations that (normally) ignore or turn away from positive social and/or health behaviours. The foundations of such a belief are examined, outlining key recommendations and considerations for both researchers and practitioners attending to these social and health issues through the vehicle of football. This book was originally published as a special issue of Soccer & Society.

Описание: The Official History of the FIFA Women`s World Cup is an authoritative and comprehensive review of the seven FIFA World Cup tournaments played since the inaugural tournament in 1991.
Following Stalin's death in 1953, association football clubs, as well as the informal supporter groups and communities which developed around them, were an important way for the diverse citizens of the multinational Soviet Union to express, negotiate and develop their identities, both on individual and collective levels. Manfred Zeller draws on extensive original research in Russian and Ukrainian archives, as well as interviews with spectators, 'hardcore ultras' and hooligans from the Caucasus to Central Asia, to shed new light onto this phenomenon covering the period from the height of Stalin's terror (the 1930s) to the Soviet Union's collapse (1991). Across events as diverse as the Soviet Union's footballing triumph over the German world champions in 1955 and the Luzhniki stadium disaster in 1982, Zeller explores the ways in which people, against the backdrop of totalitarianism, articulated feelings of alienation and fostered a sense of community through sport. In the process, he provides a unique 'bottom-up' reappraisal of Soviet history, culture and politics, as seen through the eyes of supporters and spectators.
This is an important contribution to research on Soviet culture after Stalin, the history of sport and contemporary debates on antagonism in the post-Soviet world.

Описание: A `crisis of community` has emerged in many areas and many have sought to blame a variety of other `social issues` on the decline of community. Football clubs now embody many of the collective symbols, identifications and processes of connectivity which have long been associated with the notion of `community`.

Описание: THE FOOTBALL IN THE COMMUNITY SCHEME arrived at a pivotal time in the history of the national game. Battered by numerous tragedies, and with the Thatcher government of the 1980s seemingly prepared for the sport to wither on the vine, the PFA sought to buck the trend by getting professional players to spend a few hours a week on community work. The initial pilot area was the football hotbed of the North-West comprising Manchester and Lancashire and such was the success of the scheme that within a few years it had extended to every professional club in the Football League. The aim of the scheme was to take football into areas where traditional social work wasnt working, using football as a way of improving the quality of life of children, the disabled, teenagers, ex-offenders and the unemployed, in a way that had never been tried before. FITC also tackled social issues such as racism, homophobia and gender through the medium of the beautiful game. Now, 35 years later, The Football In The Community scheme is a well-established at the heart of the national game and over the course of its history has played no small part in taking football from a sport regarded by the media as permanently associated with hooliganism and violence to its current status as a national obsession which openly welcomes families and people of all races into stadia and brings in billions to the economy every year.
