From its origins in England to its spread throughout the world and particularly in the Balkan countries, hooliganism has been a disruptive force that has been ruining the enjoyment of real supporters of football clubs all over the world and wreaking havoc and violence. In addition, corruption in football has also degraded the game with numerous scandals, particularly the financial and nationalistic ones. The adored sport that has traditionally fostered fair play and team spirit is more and more known for its scandals and fostering of animosity. Of particular interest for this paper are the efforts of football organizations such as FIFA and UEFA as well as the efforts of individual countries in tackling these two disruptive forces. For years critics of Croatian football have been criticising the unruly conduct of Croatian football fans at matches in the country and abroad, the scandals of match fixing and financial corruption, and the poor management of the Croatian football federation. Major changes were needed to get rid of all the negative connotations related to Croatian football and fortunately for Croatian football lovers as well as for the rest of the nation, the recent victories of the Croatian national team and its supporters nationwide have significantly increased the rating of Croatian football not only in Croatia but globally as well. Keywords: Football, hooliganism, England, the Balkans, corruption 2 Introduction This paper explores hooliganism and corruption as negative factors that have plagued the world’s most popular spectator sport of football. Hooliganism has wreaked havoc and violence since its origin in England and has spread worldwide. Of particular interest for this paper is the impact of hooliganism in the Balkan countries, with a particular emphasis on its effect as a disruptive force in Croatia. In addition, the paper examines the negative effects of corruption in football and its degradation of the game through numerous financial and nationalistic scandals. The first section of the paper provides definitions of hooliganism and gives an overview of its origins. The second section presents numerous occurrences of hooliganism throughout the UK and efforts to subdue this disruptive force. There will be a particular highlight on hooliganism in England as the country of its origin and Scotland where hooliganism also prevailed to a greater extent. The third section will focus on hooliganism in Western Europe to depict the violent and destructive behaviour that happens in Europe’s biggest and most developed countries and explore why similar negative events occur throughout Europe. The forth section gives an overview of the magnitude and extent of hooliganism in the countries of Eastern Europe like Russia, the Ukraine and Poland. The fifth section covers the Balkans as the centre of great riots and football hooligans that would shame even those in England, Russia or Poland. Furthermore, this section highlights two countries that have the greatest football and hooligan rivalry in the Balkans, i.e. Croatia and Serbia, both between the two countries and inside the countries themselves. The second issue of interest, corruption in football, is covered in the sixth and final section, with a particular emphasis on Croatia, and its many football related affairs. The different corruption scandals will be covered as well as the efforts to overcome the problems. The concluding section deals with the achievements in overcoming hooliganism and corruption in football

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.

However, EURO 2008 convinced me that it was a good idea. Once again, the tournament illustrated the extraordinary passion generated by national team football and gave rise to such a fantastic party atmosphere that I felt it was only right for the tournament to be extended to more countries, to let even more supporters take part and to spread the excitement and party atmosphere far and wide across the continent. I also felt that the emotion of the tournament should be heightened by adding a direct knockout round for the last 16 in the competition and by ensuring that all the group matches, or the vast majority of them at least, would be crucial, by allowing the best third-placed teams through to the next round. The quality of the matches we saw during EURO 2008 also confirmed the high technical level of European football, and teams like England, Scotland and IN THIS ISSUE Denmark, or even Serbia and Ukraine – to name but a few – would certainly not UEFA Cup groups 03 have reduced the quality of the tournament.
