| Zusammenfassung: | Hosting the Olympic Games: Uncertainty, Debates and Controversy provides a broad and comprehensive analysis of past Olympic and Paralympic events, shedding critical light on the future of the Games with a specific look at the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics. It draws attention to the debates and paradox that hosting the Games presents for the contemporary city. Employing a range of interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological approaches, individual chapters highlight the various controversies of the Games throughout the bidding process, the event itself and its aftermath. Social Science-based chapters place strong emphasis on the vital importance of sustainable strategy for contemporary host cities. Along with environmental concerns whether atmospheric, microbiological or otherwise, many other requirements, costs and risks involving security and public expenditure among others are explored throughout the book. Including a variety of international and comparative case studies from a range of contributing academics, this will be essential reading for students and researchers in the field of Event studies as well as various disciplines including Tourism, Heritage studies and Urban and Environmental studies |

Integrating public behaviours into operational responses to crisis situations: A way to improve security of major events?; Introduction Hosting the Olympic Games: Uncertainty, Debates and Controversy provides a broad and comprehensive analysis of past Olympic and Paralympic events, shedding critical light on the future of the Games with a specific look at the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics. It draws attention to the debates and paradox that hosting the Games presents for the contemporary city. Employing a range of interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological approaches, individual chapters highlight the various controversies of the Games throughout the bidding process, the event itself and its aftermath. Social Science-based chapters place strong emphasis on the vital importance of sustainable strategy for contemporary host cities. Along with environmental concerns whether atmospheric, microbiological or otherwise, many other requirements, costs and risks involving security and public expenditure among others are explored throughout the book. Including a variety of international and comparative case studies from a range of contributing academics, this will be essential reading for students and researchers in the field of Event studies as well as various disciplines including Tourism, Heritage studies and Urban and Environmental studies Olympische Spiele (DE-588)2021059-0 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Strategie (DE-588)4057952-9 gnd rswk-swf Großstadt (DE-588)4022233-0 gnd rswk-swf Gastgeber (DE-588)7577070-2 gnd rswk-swf Olympics Olympics / Planning Olympic host city selection / History Hosting of sporting events / Economic aspects Cities and towns / Growth / Management Sports and state / Social aspects BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Industries / Hospitality, Travel & Tourism Olympics / Economic aspects Electronic books (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Olympische Spiele (DE-588)2021059-0 f Gastgeber (DE-588)7577070-2 s Großstadt (DE-588)4022233-0 s Strategie (DE-588)4057952-9 s Geschichte z DE-604 Delaplace, Marie 1961- (DE-588)171283546 edt Schut, Pierre-Olaf 1980- (DE-588)1180517040 edt Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover Delaplace, Marie Hosting the Olympic Games Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2019 9780367223960 https://doi.org/10.4324/9780429274695 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
