It focuses on a case study of the English Premier League, analyzing where players come from, the costs of transfers and tickets, political control of foreign player migration, and arguments for and against quotas on homegrown players. It also examines the economics of why the Premier League is attractive to broadcast companies. Students are assigned a project to analyze these factors for the Premier League and present similar research on the factors for Grand Prix racing.
