El campeonato de Futbol FIFA es un torneo que se hace en cualquiera de los puntos geográficos mundiales cada 4 años. Este mega evento no solo atrae a miles de visitantes sino que dispara fuerzas contradictorias emulando la vida y la muerte. Este trabajo explora hasta que punto esta clase de eventos impacta sobre la vida diaria de las personas. Parte del supuesto que los deportes simbolizan los ritos de iniciación propios de cualquier sociedad. La victoria y el fracaso representan la vida y la muerte apelando a un discurso unificador con el fin de evitar la disgregación social.
The FIFA world cup as a tournament held every 4 years in diverse points of the world. This mega-event not only attracts thousand of tourists but also triggers the forces of life and death. This paper explores to what an extent these types of events impact in our daily life. Sports symbolize the rites of initiation whenever a born is presented in society (baptism expresses the life or presentation of a new member) as well as the funerary rites of burial of members who departed from this world (death). The win and defeat correspond with two of the contradictory principles that human beings attempted to comprehend from immemorial times, the life and death. In the day-to-day life, the chains of solidarities among people tend to be dispersed by many reasons; the types of rites worked to improve the asymmetries and problems to the extent of preventing the social fragmentation.
