Understanding the Olympics
How did the Olympics evolve into a multi-national phenomenon? What will be the impact and legacy of the Olympics after Tokyo in 2020? How can the Olympics help us to understand the relationship between sport and society?
For the first time, this new edition introduces the reader to the Understanding the Olympics answers all these questions by exploring the social, cultural, political, historical, and economic context of the Games.This thoroughly revised and updated edition discusses recent attempts at future proofing by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in the face of growing global anti-Olympic activism, the changing geo-political context within which the Olympics take place, and the Olympic histories of the next three cities to host the Games - Tokyo (2020), Paris (2024), and Los Angeles (2028) - as well as the legacy of the London (2012) Olympics.
