Focusing on the intersection of football and politics, this book provides a comparative analysis of how political actors influence sports and broader societal structures in Europe. It employs a sociological approach, particularly Bourdieu's field theory, to explore the significance of football in European societies. While examining various countries, it centers on Germany, revealing how both elected and non-elected power holders navigate the norms of football. The work integrates perspectives from political science, sociology, anthropology, and sports studies to investigate the dynamics of political power in this unique context.
