are the key characters in this
anthropological study of football in Cameroon. It might
seem that a well-organized club with professional
executives, a
leam of talented players and an experienced
coach would be sufficient to win a match. However, a
successful team also requires a powerful African 'big
man' of specific ethnic affiliation, a considerable budget
for 'motivation' (briberyl and the right kind of spiritual
assistance (magic). But even then internal struggles
within the club and team caused by corrupt executives.
coach's players and godfathers, witchcraft and sorcery,
and/or other factors such as spectator violence may
mean that the team still loses. |
