Description

Explore the complex reality of global sports through Major Sporting Events: Beyond the Big Two. Part of the Sport in the Global Society - Contemporary Perspectives series by Routledge, this collection examines how major events are used for political gain and the rhetoric of legacy. While these events are often presented as solutions for rising obesity, low physical activity, and urban decline, this text looks deeper at the actual outcomes. By drawing on diverse international scholars and various disciplinary backgrounds, the book provides insights into sporting events outside the traditional mainstream. It offers a critical look at the temporary feel-good factors versus the long-term impacts of large-scale athletic competitions in a global context.
