Follow-up to Globalization & Sports Discussion
The Washington Post today, August 30th, featured a very poignant article on globalization that expands on our discussion of Foer's book last week. This front-page article discusses baseball, America's traditional pastime, and its growing influence in China. Check it out if you have time. I think it offers another interesting perspective on the strong connection between international sports and globalization.

"Big company sees huge market in China. Big company tries to capture that market before anyone else." I thought that quote was very interesting. In the free market, people aim to go anywhere as long as they're able to make the money.
