Football Hooligans by Gary Armstrong
Examines how groups of young male fans come to be identified as football 'hooligans, and challenges the assumption that violence is wholly central to the match-day experience for these supporters. This book is for undergraduates of social anthropology, sociology and criminology, and also for the general reader with an interest in football culture.-
