The most globalized institution on the planet

I finally got around to reading Franklin Foer's latest book about globalization, "How Soccer Explains the World: An Unlikely Theory of Globalization." It had been excerpted in article form in Foreign Policy Magazine last year, for those of you who'd prefer a condensed version. It's a hugely interesting theory, and Franklin presents it very entertainingly. I'd certainly recommend it to anyone interested in either globalization or international soccer. Er, all 2 of us.
