The Justification of Measures Combating Football-Related Violence In The Netherlands: “A Discourse Analysis"

Abstract

This research will focus on the discourse surrounding the measures taken to combat football-related violence. It will analyze the justifications for these measures by law enforcement agencies. Through a discourse analysis approach, the research will examine the language and rhetoric used to support or oppose these measures and investigate how they influence public perception and policy decisions. By shedding light on the different perspectives and underlying assumptions, the study aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the issue and inform future efforts to reduce football-related violence.
