  • From Custom to Code. a Sociological Interpretation of the Making of Association Football
    From Custom to Code From Custom to Code A Sociological Interpretation of the Making of Association Football Dominik Döllinger Dissertation presented at Uppsala University to be publicly examined in Humanistiska teatern, Engelska parken, Uppsala, Tuesday, 7 September 2021 at 13:15 for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The examination will be conducted in English. Faculty examiner: Associate Professor Patrick McGovern (London School of Economics). Abstract Döllinger, D. 2021. From Custom to Code. A Sociological Interpretation of the Making of Association Football. 167 pp. Uppsala: Department of Sociology, Uppsala University. ISBN 978-91-506-2879-1. The present study is a sociological interpretation of the emergence of modern football between 1733 and 1864. It focuses on the decades leading up to the foundation of the Football Association in 1863 and observes how folk football gradually develops into a new form which expresses itself in written codes, clubs and associations. In order to uncover this transformation, I have collected and analyzed local and national newspaper reports about football playing which had been published between 1733 and 1864. I find that folk football customs, despite their great local variety, deserve a more thorough sociological interpretation, as they were highly emotional acts of collective self-affirmation and protest. At the same time, the data shows that folk and early association football were indeed distinct insofar as the latter explicitly opposed the evocation of passions, antagonistic tensions and collective effervescence which had been at the heart of the folk version. Keywords: historical sociology, football, custom, culture, community Dominik Döllinger, Department of Sociology, Box 624, Uppsala University, SE-75126 Uppsala, Sweden.

  • Norfolk Through a Lens
    NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service 2 NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service History and Background The systematic collecting of photographs of Norfolk really began in 1913 when the Norfolk Photographic Survey was formed, although there are many images in the collection which date from shortly after the invention of photography (during the 1840s) and a great deal which are late Victorian. In less than one year over a thousand photographs were deposited in Norwich Library and by the mid- 1990s the collection had expanded to 30,000 prints and a similar number of negatives. The devastating Norwich library fire of 1994 destroyed around 15,000 Norwich prints, some of which were early images. Fortunately, many of the most important images were copied before the fire and those copies have since been purchased and returned to the library holdings. In 1999 a very successful public appeal was launched to replace parts of the lost archive and expand the collection. Today the collection (which was based upon the survey) contains a huge variety of material from amateur and informal work to commercial pictures. This includes newspaper reportage, portraiture, building and landscape surveys, tourism and advertising. There is work by the pioneers of photography in the region; there are collections by talented and dedicated amateurs as well as professional art photographers and early female practitioners such as Olive Edis, Viola Grimes and Edith Flowerdew. More recent images of Norfolk life are now beginning to filter in, such as a village survey of Ashwellthorpe by Richard Tilbrook from 1977, groups of Norwich punks and Norfolk fairs from the 1980s by Paul Harley and re-development images post 1990s.

    NORFOLK COUNTY COUNCIL MANAGING SAFETY AT DESIGNATED SPORTS GROUNDS 1. Introduction This policy document has been produced by the Resources Department, Norfolk County Council, and is the agreed policy and procedure for managing safety at designated sports grounds within the county. It identifies the roles and responsibilities of the Council in undertaking its statutory duties and has been consulted on with both the Emergency Services and the Sports Grounds Safety Authority. 2. Definitions The 1975 Act defines a sports ground as a place where sports or other competitive activities take place in the open air, where accommodation has been provided for spectators consisting of artificial structures or natural structures artificially modified for the purpose. Under the provisions of section 1 of the 1975 Act the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport may designate as requiring a safety certificate any sports ground that has accommodation for more than 10,000 spectators, or 5,000 in the case of Premier League and Football League grounds in England and Wales. These sports grounds are referred to as designated grounds. The Safety Advisory Group (SAG) is a multi-agency advisory group consisting of the appropriate members of local authority staff, representatives of Norfolk Constabulary, Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service, East of England Ambulance Service, CNC Building Control, the Certificate Holder (Norwich City Football Club) and the Sports Grounds Safety Authority. 3. Policy Aim Norfolk County Council’s policy aim, working in conjunction with its partner agencies, is to ensure the reasonable safety of spectators attending any designated sports ground. 4. Legislative Duty Under the Safety of Sports Grounds Act 1975 (as amended) “the 1975 Act” Norfolk County Council (“the Council”) has a statutory duty: • To issue a General Safety Certificate for each designated sports ground within the county, containing such terms and conditions as the County Council considers necessary or expedient to secure reasonable safety.

  • A Review of Office Accommodation in Norwich
    A Review of Office Accommodation in Norwich Prepared for: Norwich City Council 1 By RAMIDUS CONSULTING LIMITED Date: 6th July 2020 A Review of Office Accommodation in Norwich Executive summary The Norwich office market is in a fragile and vulnerable condition, and this is especially true in the city centre. It has under-performed comparator cities in recent years. It is also shrinking when the trend should be one of expansion. Office occupiers are evolving rapidly Fundamental changes in the economy are bringing about major changes in the demand for property, particularly the office sector. Drivers are economic, business, technological and social, creating what is widely called the ‘knowledge economy’, typified by technology-enabled, knowledge- intensive businesses. This disruption is seen in the amount of space required; the nature of buildings; workplace design and workplace management. As firms adopt more agile, networked approaches, offices will become ‘less generic’ and less single purpose, and will work harder to provide choice and flexibility. The Norwich office market is fragile The Norwich office market is small and vulnerable. It is half the size of Cambridge, and has been reduced by 30% in recent years due to implemented or consented conversions to residential use through Permitted Development Rights. The Prior Approvals process has exacerbated this to the extent that the very survival of the city centre office market is at risk. Despite some recent rental growth induced by scarcity, new development remains unviable. The shrinking stock of remaining offices is ageing and vulnerable to further conversion activity. Take-up of space is comparatively low for a city the size of Norwich: between 2015 and 2019 there was an annual average of 11,000 sq m of lettings (mostly second-hand), in 39 deals averaging 280 sq m each.
