Mediated Football

This book provides new and critical insights into how mediated football influences, and is affected by, discourses and stereotypes about race/ethnicity, nation and gender that operate at local, national and global levels. It analyzes contemporary media representations and the ways in which they are interpreted and used by football media audiences. These issues are explored across all media genres in a multidisciplinary and cross-cultural manner, with contributions from diverse disciplines and countries._x005F_x005F_x000D_ This book was originally published as a special issue of Soccer and Society.
