Abstract

"Xi Jinping's 'Soccer Revolution' is unique: the most extensive politicization and geo-politicization of the Global Game. His purpose is to extend the global soft-power projection of 'the Middle Kingdom': an ancient Western imperial mantra -- 'bread and circuses' -- has been replaced by a modern Eastern 'imperial' mantra -- 'rice and pitches'! The Asian Football Federation shares this 'allopathic' vision of East Asian soccer: the future is Asia and its starts in China! Soccer is a talisman for a New Asia in a New Era.

In East Asia soccer in now 'much more than a game!'"--
