  • Textually Produced Landscape Spectacles? a Debordian Reading of Finnish Namescapes and English Soccerscapes
    Textually Produced Landscape Spectacles? A Debordian Reading of Finnish Namescapes and English Soccerscapes Jani Vuolteenaho Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies Sami Kolamo University of Tampere In this article, a critical attempt is made to read the language of contemporary urban boosterism – its eulogistic adjectives and slogans, escapist evocations in nomenclature, nostalgic narratives, etc. – through the lens of The Society of the Spectacle (1995, orig. 1967), Guy Debord’s controversial theoretico-political manifesto. Through discussion of empirical examples, the authors shed light on different types of in-situ landscape texts in Finnish and English cities. In the former national context, culturally escapist and non-native names given to leisurescapes and technoscapes have mushroomed over the last quarter century. While this process represents a semi-hegemonic rather than hegemonic trend, many developers’ reliance on the “independent” representational power of language has substantially reshaped naming practices in the non-Anglophone country. The analysis of different types of promotional texts at England’s major soccerscapes evinces the co-presence of nostalgic evocations of local history amidst the hypercommodification of space. Arguably, the culturally self-sufficient, tradition- aware representational strategies in current English football stem from pressure from fans, the country’s status as the cradle of modern football, and a privileged possibility to promote the game’s “native” meanings via a globally-spoken language. Finally, this article addresses the pros and cons of using the spectacle theoretical framework to analyse critically language-based urban boosterism and branding under the current conditions of neoliberal urbanism.

  • Stadium Safety Management in England
    Stadium Safety Management in England Chris Whalley, Senior Manager, Stadia Safety and Security at The Football Association, comments on the transformation that has occurred in terms of stadium safety in England. In particular, he highlights how each football club now takes responsibility for the safety of all spectators entering its stadium. English Premier League matches are broadcast all over the world. In all continents, those fans with an interest in developments off the pitch as well as on it will have noticed the splendid all-seated stadia, the lack of pitch perimeter and segregation fences and, generally, a positive atmosphere among supporters inside the stadia. But it hasn’t always been like this. Just three decades ago, English football was still blighted by the problems of supporter violence, old stadia and what we can now recognise as a lack of any safety management culture within the stadia. Two major stadium disasters in the 1980’s and a Government-led review of stadium safety brought about a programme of change which has seen the gradual transformation of English stadia and the introduction of a new system of stadium safety management. Before examining these changes in more detail, it is helpful to look at some of the problems that led to the occurrence of these major stadium disasters. Throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s, fighting between rival supporter groups was commonplace in English football stadia. From the early beginnings of football up to the late 1960’s there had been no separation of supporters in English football stadia – home and away supporters could enter any part of the stadium and generally they would stand side by side to watch the match.
