About this document
Globalization and Soccer: A Sociological Analysis by Alexis Acero Rangel is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the globalization and spread of soccer using a figurational/process sociological approach, examining how soccer emerged in Britain in the 19th century and spread globally. It also analyzes the anomie experienced by some professional athletes, sex scandals in sports reported by tabloids, and the ongoing issue of soccer hooliganism around the world. The author argues that globalization should be viewed as a long-term process inherent in human evolution rather than a recent phenomenon.
