Why has the G.O.A.T. debate turned into LeBron vs. Jordan…. Did Kobe get overlooked? How come Klay Thompson didn’t get All-NBA honors in the 2018-2019 season?

Other relevant key concepts discussed in this book include global identification, national identification, cosmopolitanism, ethnocentrism, and cultural intelligence. This book was written for immigrants and friends of immigrants seeking to gain a better understanding of identity formation.
