"While football does not generate discriminatory behavior; it often replicates the
very same social issues that concern any given society. Evidently, football has witnessed
an alarming increase in the number of disturbing incidents on the grounds of racism,
ethnocentrism, sectarianism, homophobia and sexism. Given the variety of forms that
discrimination can take, it is imperative that football addresses with effect all
such anti-social phenomena in order to continue to promote notions pertaining to social
inclusion, equality, and cultural diversity-all central to the game's philosophy and
overall popularity. Assessing the nature and causes of discrimination in football
is key to identifying the much-needed remedies, but also because discrimination poses
a serious challenge to long-established practices deeply rooted in democracy. Discrimination
in Football provides a comprehensive and in-depth investigation into these key issues
effecting football today. This new book will appeal to academics and students with
an interest in social science, law, sport and humanities as well as football fans
and professionals in the football industry"
