This text intends to discuss World Cup productivity among children and youths in contemporary times, faced with the soccerization/footballization - globalizing process through football. For the contextualization and analysis of the evidences, contributions of some authors of Cultural Studies working with the themes of postmodern childhood and youth, and their relationship with the consumer were used. Preliminary considerations indicate that infants and teenagers are driven by soccerization/footballization to the consumer of products linked to the mode and the formation of new contemporary identities.Downloads
