The World Cup
Topic:Soccer has been a sport that has benefited enormously from the growth in satellite and cable television. There has been much research on how the sport more broadly (and its regulatory body FIFA) have benefited from the rise of global media. In addition, specific national leagues (such as Spain’s La Liga, England’s Premier League, or Italy’s Serie A) have had a global influence. By focusing on either one league, one team, or one event (such as the World Cup), demonstrate how soccer has benefited from globalization. You are free to empty the term ‘benefit’ as you see fit (so whether it is economic, cultural, national etc.).
