El Conflicto social, cultural y religioso en Glasgow visto a través de la rivalidad entre Celtic y Rangers

Abstract

En este TFM se estudiará y analizará la rivalidad futbolística conocida como Old Firm, en Glasgow, Escocia, entre el Celtic Football Club y el Rangers Football Club, forjada en base a cuestiones que, en su mayor parte, escapaban a la pura competitividad deportiva. El antagonismo se basaba en un conflicto social, cultural y religioso entre dos comunidades con modelos totalmente antagónicos de comprender el Reino Unido, Escocia, Irlanda y la propia ciudad de Glasgow, comprendiendo a cada uno de los clubes, respectivamente, como la punta de lanza identitaria de su causa.

This TFM aims to study and analyze the football rivalry known as the Old Firm, in Glasgow, Scotland, between the Celtic Football Club and the Rangers Football Club, forged upon topics that mostly went out of the logic of the sporting competition and laid its roots in the social, cultural and religious conflict between two communities with antagonic ways of understanding the United Kingdom, Scotland, Ireland and the very own city of Glasgow, understanding each one of the clubs, respectively, as the identitary spearhead of its cause.
