The Assistant Professor of Football: Soccer, Culture, History.
Just a few weeks ago, Poland elected a new parliament. The result was a change in power, from the national conservative camp to the centrist, pro-European one. And the campaign, yet again, highlighted, to use an overused term, the culture wars over defining the future of one of the European Union's largest but also newest member states. Historically occupied by its neighbors over and over again, risen from the Eastern bloc, riven between a historically national Catholic identity and the fast pace of capitalism and Westernization, between skepticism toward those changes but also a deep antagonism towards Russia, Poland is constantly, it seems, at a historical crossroads. And its soccer culture, says our guest today, highlights that. Simultaneously behind and ahead of the curve of the rest of the continent, here lies an often still undiscovered landscape of dramatic change, shady business, physical violence combined with often new stadiums and lack of success on the field. Intrigued yet? We journey into the heart of Europe with Alex Webber, a British journalist who has lived in Poland a long time and has made it his passion to chronicle the history that is unfolding before his eyes.
