A collection that develops our knowledge and understanding of the role of football in diaspora communities
Jeffrey W. Kassing’s and Sangmi Lee’s edited collection Football and Diaspora: Connecting Dispersed Communities through the Global Game (Routledge) examines football (soccer) through the lens of cross-disciplinary diaspora studies. Our reviewer, Norwegian sport sociology professor Hans K. Hognestad, finds that the collection with its wide span of empirical studies of diaspora communities in different corners of the world, negotiating identities through football, is welcome and, arguably, overdue.
