Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access book explores the linkages between geopolitics and hosting mega-events.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Olympic Games have evolved from a sporting event into a perceived catalyst for urban transformation, enabling host governments to pursue legacies that position cities as global hubs. Yet aligning the Games demands with urban planning goals remains challenging. Mounting public scrutiny of rising costs and risks has reduced enthusiasm for hosting, prompting the International Olympic Committee to launch the Olympic Agenda 2020, aiming to enhance sustainability, credibility, and youth appeal.This book critically examines the Agenda s urban measures, focusing on preparations for Paris 2024 and Milan-Cortina 2026, the first editions fully shaped by them. Findings expose persistent gaps between global ambitions and local outcomes, rooted in structural dynamics of both the Olympic model and host city systems. By proposing mitigation strategies, the book advances debates on mega-events, offering resilient approaches to better align Games planning with host cities needs and strengthen urban sustainability for future editions.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book provides a rich analysis of the intangible legacies of mega-events and their impact on youth citizenship and civic engagement. It focuses on the memories and expectations of young inhabitants from London and Rio de Janeiro in relation to the 2012London and2016 RioGames. By focusing on the Olympics as a case studyofone of the most mediatised mega-events, this book examines how youth discourses about the Games provide important enactments of local, national, transnational and cultural identities prompted by the memories and imaginaries of the Games.It fills important gaps in the current scholarship dedicated to Mega-events, Youth Citizenship and Media, by touching on the topics related to mediated memories, globalisation, mediatisation, youth citizenship and memory studies. It also seeks to explore and contribute, from a new perspective, to a new idea of intangible legacies of mega-events.While this research explores and reviews the concept of intangible legacies of the Olympic Games it also provides an opportunity for young people, from two global distinct contexts, to voice their concerns and ideas about society while engaging with different topics that are relevant to them. It also demonstrates and supports the idea that young people are engaged with politics and their local or national contexts, but through different formats and interests.Hence, it suggests thatfurther consultation is needed in order to understand the multiplemeaningsof the Games' intangible legacies.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume offers a novel study of the Milan-Cortina's Winter Olympics 2026, with a focus on the mountainous region of Valtellina.
