Abstract

Cilj ovog rada je približiti sliku o nasilju na nogometnim utakmicama i stvaranju samog navijačkog identiteta kod pojedinca. S porastom popularnosti nogometa raste i broj navijačkih skupina, čime su navijači postali značajni sudionici sportskih događanja širom svijeta. No, njihova uloga donosi sa sobom kako pozitivne tako i negativne aspekte. Navijači, kroz formiranje neformalnih grupa i razvoj vlastitog načina života, zajednički izražavaju svoje nezadovoljstvo i reagiraju na jasne kontradikcije u društvu koje uzrokuju osjećaj frustracije i isključenosti kod mladih. Zabilježeni su brojni tragični ishodi na tribinama kao rezultat nasilnog ponašanja koji su doveli do uvođenja zakonskog okvira i različitih mjera za suzbijanje istog. Slanje poruka na tribinama, konflikti sa državnim službenicima i bunt protiv vlasti nije rijetka pojava kod navijačkih skupina. Međutim, vidljiv je veliki utjecaj na sam nogomet od strane navijača koji se svojim direktnim i poduzetnim akcijama bore protiv politizacije nogometih klubova. Uočljiva je solidarnost i humanost kod navijačkih skupina kada je to najpotrebnije kroz humanitarne akcije, prikupljanje novca i darivanje krvi. Stoga se postavlja pitanje, možemo li postupke navijača opisati kao samo navijanje ili pak huliganizam?

Abstract (english)

The aim of this paper is to provide insight into football-related violence and the formation of individual fan identity. With the increasing popularity of football, the number of supporter groups has also risen, making fans significant participants in sporting events worldwide. However, their role brings both positive and negative aspects. Fans, through the establishment of informal groups and the development of their own way of life, collectively express their dissatisfaction and react to clear societal contradictions that result in feelings of frustration and exclusion among young people. Numerous tragic incidents have been recorded in the stands as a result of violent behavior, leading to the introduction of legal frameworks and various measures to combat it. Sending messages in the stands, conflicts with law enforcement officials, and protests against authorities are not uncommon occurrences among supporter groups. Nevertheless, there is a noticeable significant influence on football itself by fans who, through their direct and proactive actions, combat the politicization of football clubs. The solidarity and humanity of supporter groups are evident when it is most needed through humanitarian actions, fundraising, and blood donation. Therefore, the question arises, can we describe the actions of fans as mere cheering or hooliganism?
