One Global Village: The Impact and Influence of Sports.

No matter who we are or where we are from, we all celebrate some festival every year. Today, it can be said sports and sporting events are no less than major festivals that are celebrated with vigour and even better is the fact that it transcends boundaries. Events like the Olympics, Commonwealth Games or various cups make the world a global village. We had David Rowe, Emeritus Professor of Cultural Research, Institute for culture and society, Western Sydney University to talk us about the global nature of sports and it influences across the world.
