Abstract

The soccer is the sport of more diffusion in Mexico. In modern stadiums or in the street, it constitutes the activity that mobilizes bigger passions. And although it possesses connections with other fields of the social reality, their study has passed desapercibido for the local social sciences. This forgetfulness, however, contrasts with the informative abundance of the media that you/they have been able to monopolize the word and the sense of this field. The present work begins with a brief synthesis of happening academic in Latin America; then the bibliography is revised taken place in Mexico and you concludes with an exhibition of the possible investigation lines that this field offers to the social sciences. This way, we will look for to present to the sports, and to the soccer in particular, as an unexplored territory that, given
their multiple interrelations, he/she reserves to the anthropological look a singular vision of the Mexican society.
