English summary: Football thrills the masses - and not just in Germany. In recent years, historical science has therefore also considered the phenomenon of football within the context of everyday life and social history, with social historians particularly interested in the social, societal and economic connections of the sport. The German Football League has experienced a steady upward trend since it was founded; however the German Bundesliga scandal of the 1970s demonstrates that this path has not been as straightforward, as is believed. The focus of the book is the growth of the German Bundesliga, as it has evolved as a link between society and sport. The book is thus an inventory of the state of modern football. German description: Fussball begeistert - nicht nur in Deutschland. In den letzten Jahren hat sich daher auch die Geschichtswissenschaft im Rahmen von Alltags- und Sozialgeschichte dem Phanomen "Konig Fussball" beschaftigt. Dabei interessieren vor allem die sozialen, gesellschaftlichen und wirtschaftlichen Verbindungen dieses Sports. Die Fussballbundesliga hat seit ihrer Grundung einen stetigen Aufwartstrend erlebt; dass dieser Weg keineswegs so geradlinig verlief, wie angenommen wird, beweist nicht nur der Bundesligaskandal der 1970er Jahre. Im Zentrum des Buches steht dabei die Entwicklung der Bundesliga, wie sie sich im Austausch zwischen Gesellschaft und Sport entwickelt hat. Das Buch ist dadurch eine Bestandsaufnahme des modernen Fussballs.
