Description

Explore the complex relationship between large-scale global gatherings and modern safety protocols in Security Games: Surveillance and Control at Mega-Events. Published by Routledge as part of the Glasshouse Book series, this text examines how events like the Olympic Games and the World Cup transform security and surveillance practices. Because the primary goal for organizers is to ensure that nothing goes wrong, these mega-events create unique and extensive security challenges. This book looks at how the potential for endless risks leads to the development of pre-emptive risk assessments and an expanding range of security measures. Readers will learn about the various levels of surveillance and the security infrastructure deployed to manage these massive public spectacles. This work provides a detailed look at how the perceived need for total control shapes the way security is delivered in a modern global context.
