This book examines the urban legacy of the 2014 football World Cup in Brazil across the seven cities that hosted matches. The authors, all experts and natives of South America, analyse the context and impacts of hosting the World Cup for each of the host cities. The chapters use a range of background data and local knowledge and understanding to critically assess what benefits or disadvantages came along with bidding for and hosting World Cup final games, and importantly considers who the beneficiaries where and are. It further provides detailed empirical evidence that highlights a growing trend in sporting mega events: the overestimation of benefits and an underestimation of costs involved in hosting. The book adds to the critical literature that provides a counterweight to governments' aspirations to use mega events for the purposes of development and/or globalization, irrespective of the views of their citizens.

As the Asia crisis of 1997 demonstrated, institutional weaknesses in the domestic financial markets and the banking sector contribute largely to the macroeconomic vulnerability of emerging markets, as the fear of losses on the part of investors can quickly spiral out of control in such a scenario. [...] (Note: The award of the 2014 football World Cup to Brazil as the only candidate at that time is a major exception and should be viewed to some extent as a tribute to Brazil's footballing tradition.) The »providers« of the global sporting events are the great and mighty global associations like the IOC and FIFA, which leverage their monopoly position to gain most of the profits from licensing and c. [...] As has been the case over recent months and all the more so during the staging of the Confederations Cup (a type of test tournament a good year ahead of the World Cup at featuring the hosts of the next World Cup and representatives of the FIFA confederations), it is possible that large swathes of the Brazilian population will take part in massive protests against the World Cup. [...] However, the reforms known as Agenda 2010 are responsible for this and not the good humour of the population during the World Cup or the reputation of the Germans abroad, which were no doubt boosted by the successful World Cup. [...] 16 The UEFA and FIFA football associations possess the knowledge needed to leverage the brand status of the national teams, the FIFA World Cups and the UEFA European Championships into the future.

The Brazil 2014 World Cup soccer competition was a great change from the last few previous World Cup tournaments. In Brazil this year, football strategy went back to it being about the team and not individual players. This world cup tournament went to winning teams rather than winning individual players. This competition was all about teamwork, team strategy and team cohesion.

The opening game of the 20th FIFAWorld Cup in Brazil will kick off in São Paulo on 12 June. Two years later, Brazil will again be under public scrutiny around the world when Rio de Janeiro hosts the XXXI Summer Olympics. These events are giving Brazil the chance to present itself to the world as a powerful, safe and modern country. But in the run-up to the World Cup, massive protests against the country's political leaders have erupted among large parts of the population. Even though few countries are as sport- and especially football-mad as Brazil, many Brazilians view the World Cup as a symbol of corruption and mismanagement. Some stadiums are still not finished a few weeks before the start of the World Cup, and massive security concerns prevail. Things are not going all that smoothly for the host country in economic terms either. Given the difficult situation at present, Brazil's chances of winning the World Cup are certainly much greater than of it being able to catch up with the world's leading economies any time soon.

One of the Boston Globe’s Best Sports Books of the Year: “Incisive, heartbreaking, important and even funny” (Jeremy Schaap, New York Times–bestselling author of Cinderella Man). The people of Brazil celebrated when it was announced that they were hosting the World Cup—the world’s most-viewed athletic tournament—in 2014 and the 2016 Summer Olympics. But as the events were approaching, ordinary Brazilians were holding the country’s biggest protest marches in decades. Sports journalist Dave Zirin traveled to Brazil to find out why. In a rollicking read that travels from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro to the fabled Maracanã Stadium to the halls of power in Washington, DC, Zirin examines Brazilians’ objections to the corruption of the games they love; the toll such events take on impoverished citizens; and how taking to the streets opened up an international conversation on the culture, economics, and politics of sports. “Millions will enjoy the World Cup and Olympics, but Zirin justly reminds readers of the real human costs beyond the spectacle.” —Kirkus Reviews

Brazil has done much to shape football/soccer, but how has soccer shaped Brazil? Despite the political and social importance of the beautiful game to the country, the subject has hitherto received little attention. This book presents groundbreaking work by historians and researchers from Brazil, the United States, Britain and France, who examine the political significance, in the broadest sense, of the sport in which Brazil has long been a world leader. The authors consider questions such as the relationship between soccer, the workplace and working class culture; the formation of Brazilian national identity; race relations; political and social movements; and the impact of the sport on social mobility. Contributions to the book range in time from the late nineteenth century, when the British first introduced the sport to Brazil, to the present day, as the 'country of soccer' prepares itself to host the 2014 World Cup, painting a vivid picture of the many ways in which soccer exists and functions in Brazil, both on and off the pitch.
