Olympic Event Organization is the first text to address a number of important questions in contemporary mega event management: why do governments invest so heavily to attract mega events like the Olympic Games? What is the nature of political economy of the Olympic movement and how does it affect the games organisers? How do the organising committees of the Olympic Games evolve in their lifecycle? What impacts do the Olympic Games have and how are these evaluated? Written in an accessible and insightful manner this text addresses three core areas of importance: * Mega-event organization * Organizational power and politics * Organizational analysis Olympic Event Organization draws on rich material from the Sydney 2000, Salt Lake City 2002, Athens 2004, Torino 2006, Beijing 2008, Vancouver 2010 and London 2012 Olympic Games and is essential reading for academics and practitioners alike.
