Sobre IBD

Have you ever wondered why states invest so heavily in sports mega-events? Ever considered who benefits from these (mostly publicly financed) ’mega’ events? Part of the rationale of this edited collection is to go beyond the positive discourse that attends sports ’megas’. The volume of essays from a stellar international cast of experts offers a panoramic and interdisciplinary view of the growing field of Sports Mega-Event studies. The contributions cover discussion of the key concepts and debates in cutting-edge research, examples of leveraging strategies and the legacies from previous sports megas (such as London, Seoul, Sydney, Vancouver) and examples and analyses of recent and future ’emerging’ states and their hosting strategies (such as India, China, Qatar and Russia).
