    NAVIGATING BODIES, BORDERS AND THE GLOBAL GAME: AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF YOUTH, FOOTBALL AND THE (PRODUCTIVE) POLITICS OF PRIVATION IN GHANA, WEST AFRICA By Darragh McGee A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Darragh McGee (2015) NAVIGATING BODIES, BORDERS, AND THE GLOBAL GAME: AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF YOUTH, FOOTBALL AND THE (PRODUCTIVE) POLITICS OF PRIVATION IN GHANA, WEST AFRICA Darragh McGee Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the precarity and politics of youth as it intersects with the game of football in postcolonial Ghana. Departing from scholarly assertions of a ‘crisis’ of youth in its masculine guise, the study is predicated on the lived experiences of a male youth citizenry excluded from the prosperous narrative of Ghana’s neoliberal state, and unable to procure the basic means to work, wage and wedlock. Drawing on multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork in southern Ghana, I ask of how this generation of peripheral male youth construct the game of football vis-à-vis the precarious nature of their societal ‘becoming’, and their broader quest to live productively through the fractured, crisis-ridden exigencies of these neoliberal times. Drawing on the metaphor-concept of the borderland, I proceed to argue that the game of football – both as a mediated form of global popular culture and a hegemonic masculine practice – has come to represent an alternative source of mobility and a most millenarian resolution to the ‘crisis’ of youth in its masculine and West African guise.
