New book on antisemitism in football: Rich in empirical data, missing...
Emma Poulton’s edited collection Antisemitism in Football: International Perspectives (Routledge) investigates the nature and prevalence of expressions of antisemitism within the context of football mostly in Europe, and attempts to challenge and combat this problematic phenomenon. Björn Horgby found the collection, which deals with football-related antisemitism in ten countries, to be very informative if also a bit scattered, and he wishes that the contributions would have been guided by Poulton’s commendable categorization of antisemitism in her concluding chapter.

Disputation | Låt de rätta komma in och må de finna vägen ut: Om idrottsutbildningar, antagningsprocesser och karriärutveckling av Filip Andersson, Linnéuniversitetet, den 12...
Filip Anderssons syfte med avhandlingen är att fördjupa förståelsen för gymnasiala idrottsutbildningar, särskilt de metoder och beslutsprocesser som ligger till grund för antagning av elever till dessa utbildningar, samt den betydelse de har i formandet av idrottskarriärer. Forskningssyftet uppnås med hjälp av fyra studier som rapporterats i artikelformat i vetenskapliga tidskrifter, och som sammantaget ger nya insikter i idrottsskolors funktion, såväl som i antagningsprocesser och karriärutveckling inom dem. Avhandlingen erbjuder värdefulla perspektiv för att förfina antagningsprocedurer och karriärvägledning.
