The Making of \"Jew Clubs\" explores how four major European football clubs--FC Bayern Munich, FK Austria Vienna, Ajax Amsterdam, and Tottenham Hotspur--came to be seen as \"Jew Clubs,\" even though they have never officially identified as Jewish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this transnational study, Pavel Brunssen traces how both Jewish and non-Jewish actors perform Jewishness, antisemitism, and philosemitism within European football cultures over the 20th and 21st centuries. Drawing on a wide array of primary sources--from fan chants and matchday rituals to media portrayals and club histories--the book reveals how football stadiums have become unexpected stages for negotiating memory, identity, and historical trauma.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOffering a new approach to Holocaust memory, sports history, and Jewish studies, The Making of \"Jew Clubs\" shows how football cultures reflect and reshape Europe's conflicted relationship with its Jewish past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePavel Brunssen\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eis a Research Associate and Alfred Landecker Lecturer at the Research Center on Antigypsyism at Heidelberg University.
