Produktinformationen zu „The World Cup Chronicles (ePub)“

Jorge Knijnik's wonderful new book, The World Cup Chronicles - 31 Days that Rocked Brazil, is a unique and different look at the 2014 World Cup and its social, cultural, political and sporting impact on the people of Brazil.

The World Cup wasn't 'just' a football tournament for Brazilian people - even though it came to be defined by the infamous 7-1 semi-final result against eventual winners, Germany - but it was part of the national psyche and important social change, overlaid by what we now know as corrupt practices within world football which included those in power in football in Brazil over decades.

Knijnik's book looks at before, during and after the World Cup and discusses the much-vaunted 'legacy' issues to which FIFA has always pointed as being what they give back to a nation.

Autoren-Porträt von Jorge Knijnik

Jorge Knijnik Jorge is an Associate Professor at the Western Sydney University (School of Education and Institute for Culture & Society).

He was born in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil's southernmost state. He moved to Sao Paulo with his family as a child, and started to love football watching Pele playing on the Pacaembu stadium.

Jorge writes and researches on a number of topics, from sport in society, culture and history, to gender and human rights in education, to physical education pedagogies, to drama studies and fandom culture.

His current research examines the socialisation process within football fans in Greater Western Sydney and how football fandom has the potential to make a significant contribution to community cohesion and regeneration in the area. He is also involved in a number of projects looking at the political and cultural contradictory legacies of sports mega events in Brazil

He currently lives in Sydney with his four children and his wife, where he enjoys the beautiful beaches and his bike rides - but misses the Brazilian rhythms.
