Abstract

This paper analyzes a corpus of “episodes of violence” in Argentine professional football between 2006 and 2017, using data gathered by the author. It is based on information posted on Internet sites about incidents related to football and reported in the main national newspapers as well as in the archives of the NGO Salvemos al Fútbol. The objective is to compile a map of the ways in which “violence in football” has been expressed over the past decade and, at the same time, to comment the response of public policies on safety in sports, which have sought to react to tragic events.
