Italian Soccer at a Standstill

There is, as you might expect, a bunch of news and many blog posts about the recent killing of a policeman during a riot after an Italian soccer game in Catania. Here’s a selection:

• Italy signals crackdown on hooligans
• Another Paranoid Foresight
• Hooligan clampdown after death
• Past Italian soccer deaths
• Past hooligan crackdowns
• Words fly after police death
• Italy buries slain policeman
• Pope condemns violence in soccer
• Thoughts on the State of Calcio
• At a Crossroads
• Just in Case We Needed Further Proof that Football is an Industry

It’s clear something needs to be done. What’s not clear is whether anything meaningful will be done.
