This book is a fascinating journey through a series of scholarly
articles. The journey begins by tracing one of the most significant
stories in the popularization of Association Football. In the next
leg of the journey it charts the diverse and changing face of the
modern British game. It then moves on to the global spread of the
game from England and its domestication and appropriation in its
new homes across the planet. It also investigates the exchanges
which are increasingly taking place between these new homes of
football. In the concluding pieces football's global experience is
compared with the attempts at globalizing baseball and drawing out
the larger patterns that inform football's global experience. This
book was published as a special issue in Soccer and Society.
