How Soccer Explains the World: An Unlikely Theory of Globalization by Franklin Foer

5.0

This book is nothing short of amazing. Frank Foer actually provides an argument that the processes of globalization can be explained through soccer clubs. Before reading the book I figured the man had to be crazy, because frankly i just couldn't see it, but upon completion he actually provides a compelling argument for this theory and has convinced me at the very least globalization trends can be viewed in several clubs past and present. The only really problem I could find in the book was his support for Barca. Other than that it was completely flawless.
