In this chapter, we examine significant scholarly publications on soccer hooliganism. The study also took into account the rise in popularity of ex-hooligans' "confessions" books. This review does not claim to be exhaustive because there is a large and growing amount of literature in this area. The various academic theories include the "figurational" or "process-sociological" approach, which was popular in the early 20th century, developed by Dunning et al., the "anthropological" approach by Armstrong and Harris, the post-modern approach by Giulianotti, the Marxist approach by Taylor, Clarke, and Hargreaves, the "ethogenic" approach by Marsh, the "psychological reversal theory" approach by Kerr, and the historically sensitive/historical approaches by King and We go back to Ian Taylor's Marxist theoretical perspective later in the article. Even though Marxist perspectives are no longer common in academia, we think they still have something to contribute.
