Hi, need to submit a 500 words paper on the topic The 2022 World Cup in Qatar: Benefits and Possible Problems.

Hi, need to submit a 500 words paper on the topic The 2022 World Cup in Qatar: Benefits and Possible Problems. Databases/search tool used:

On the library, there are several search tools and I used the “All Keyword” search tool because this would offer me the closest results to my search.

Keywords used in the search:

In the “All Keyword” search tool, I keyed in the words “Economics of football”. This is because I was after the financial benefits brought by the game to a country.

Search limiters: (Time? Place?)

My search did not require any search limiters because football is a universal game guided by the same circumstances and as such, the results would be similar regardless of place or time.

Other sources searched: (e.g. Google?)

Apart from the library catalog, I used Google to find online newspaper websites such as The Guardian and The Washington Post. Such sources are credible and provide the most accurate information. I also went to the online Google Books store and searched for some books which provided me with Arabic culture information which I used to base my research on.
