More than Just a Game - Football as a Philosophical, Anthropological, and Sociological Subject

There are many reasons for the global success of football. The game fulfils our longing for triumph and endorses our knowledge of failure. It produces heroes and losers, demonstrates that we have to fight to reach our aims, but also shows the importance of cooperating and interacting. Thus football acts as a theatre of existence, in which life can both mirror and transcend itself. The class will take a look behind the scenes and identify the mechanisms that make football so popular.
