Football Fandom in Europe and Latin America

Know about the book -

Football Fandom in Europe and Latin America is written by Bernardo Buarque de Hollanda and published by Springer Nature. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3031064739 (ISBN 10) and 9783031064739 (ISBN 13).

This book combines pieces of work on Europe and Latin America, the two continents where football arouses the most ardent passions among its spectators. Curiously, an undertaking to compare on a large scale the forms extreme fandom takes in these two geographical areas is still lacking. A situational analysis of the scientific literature devoted to the subject over the last two or three decades represents a step in this direction, making a scattered store of knowledge accessible. It thus answers a need to clarify regional differences in identities and in the practices of supporters.
