Eps 17: Nicholas Blincoe – The Beautiful Game: Football and National Identity in Israel and Palestine

In today’s episode, we explore the role of football in Israeland Palestine. Our guest discusses what drew them to this subject and shares surprising insights from their research. We dive into the origins of football during the British Mandate period, examining how it paralleled the developmentof political structures.

We discuss the influence of early Jewish Zionist and Palestinian expressions of nationalism through football and the experiences of rival football associations both nationally and internationally. The conversation also covers how football mirrored broader national and political divides and whether any teams have ongoing political allegiances.

Finally, we examine if football has played a role in bridging divides between Israelis and Palestinians and explore how it could promote a more positive future.
