Soccer as Moral Training: Missionary Intentions And Imperial Legacies
| Title: | Soccer as Moral Training: Missionary Intentions And Imperial Legacies |

| Abstract: | The author extends his earlier investigations of the dissemination of football on the edges of British India into a full account of the introduction of football to Kashmir and the North-West Frontier Province in the 1890s. The emphasis here is on sport as a tool of Empire and he shows that football was at the intersection of the disciplinary, military, educational and spatial projects through which the British were trying to impose their authority and control the regions. He does not neglect the complexity of interpreting indigenous reactions to such projects and examples from Kashmir show a variety of often conflicting responses by the local community to football.
