2022-23 Season Kicks Off

A new season of the Football Scholars Forum is ready for kick off!

On Thursday, September 29, at 2pm US Eastern Time (8pm CET, 9pm Nairobi and Doha time), we welcome anthropologist Uroš Kovač, author of The Precarity of Masculinity: Football, Pentecostalism, and Transnational Aspirations in Cameroon.

The book is available in epub format from the publisher for $34.95.

This session is co-sponsored by the Sports Africa Network — a leading organization of sport scholars and practitioners — which will also stream it as part of their Sports Africa Live series.

To participate, please contact Peter Alegi (alegi AT msu DOT edu).


The next session in November (date/time tbc) will be with Peter J. Watson, author of Football and Nation Building in Colombia (2010-2018), available as an open access e-book (yes, free download!).
