| Popis: | Politicians, inhabitants, and, more generally, local stakeholders, fear an increase in costs and doubt the benefits of hosting a mega-event such as the Olympic Games. The Olympic Games are events planned with long lead times, which belong to the category of occasional mega-events with high international visibility and high expectations about value creation. Academic literature is paying increasing attention to the Olympic Games because they are the subject of considerable social issues and tensions in the metropolises that organize and host them. The Olympic Games illustrate in an exemplary and empirical way the theory of Right to the City, developed by authors such as David Harvey or Manuel Castells. The literature on the urban and geostrategic issues of the Olympic Games as a competitive mega-event reveals a lot of important controversies. Organizing the Olympic Games is context-dependent and also stakeholder-dependent. The main criticisms are linked to the financial dimension of the Olympic Games’ organization. |
