Summary
In this episode, Dr. Işılay Gürsu and Dr. Peter Cherry talk with social anthropologist Dr. John McManus, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral fellow at the Maecenata Foundation in Berlin and former BIAA Postdoctoral Fellow, about his book Welcome to Hell? In Search of the Real Turkish Football (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2018) and researching Turkish football. In a wide-reaching conversation, Dr. McManus talks about how football fandom draws on ties of family, class, ethnicity and community belonging in Türkiye, the role football plays in constructions of masculinity and gender performance, efforts to make football more inclusive to women and marginalised groups, and concludes by offering tips on writing books aimed at popular audiences and how academics can reach out more to public audiences.
