“Someone always loses.” German Football, Ideology, and Right-Wing Politics (ep. 14-UW Global Sport Lab)
Ansgar Mohnkern is the author of Someone Always Loses: Reflections on Football and Ideology (2023), Universitair Docent at the University of Amsterdam, and served as the Max Kade Distinguished Visiting Professor in German Studies this spring at UW. He joined Ron Krabill, Director of the Global Sport Lab, to discuss the relationship between sports, political ideology, and right wing movements in Germany, the United States, and beyond.
The Global Sport Lab, based in the UW's Henry M. Jackson School, is supported by over a dozen UW departments and schools and was founded in 2024. The Lab uses the lens of sport to explore the big challenges of our global world, such as inequity, politics, injustice, human rights, popular culture, democracy and the economy.
