El fútbol como mercancía simbólica

Abstract

Como alternativa de recreación, el fútbol ha superado las barreras de la representación tradicional de los barrios, las cuadras, las veredas y los pueblos, para trascender hacia espacios imaginarios tecno-dirigidos con excelentes resultados lucrativos desde el punto de vista de la comercialización del espacio y del tiempo. La cara oculta de las pasiones en este juego se visibiliza finalmente en el "Dios dinero" y en las manipulaciones otorgadas a alegorías como el nacionalismo, la patria, la paz y la acción reprimida del sujeto en una sociedad convulsionada por el desempleo, la violencia, la pobreza y la crisis de identidad; pues es desde estos imperativos que se consolida la necesidad del deporte como instrumento de control y masificación de ideologías para conservar el status quo.
