Book Beyond the 2026 Winter Olympic Games

Download or read book Beyond the 2026 Winter Olympic Games written by Andrea Arcidiacono and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: This volume offers a novel study of the Milan-Cortina's Winter Olympics 2026, with a focus on the mountainous region of Valtellina. It brings an up-to-date analysis of the complex interactions between mega-events and remote areas, both in terms of potentials for regeneration and risks for further segregation. Remote areas are traditionally characterized by socio-economic and spatial disparities. On the one hand, they benefit from attractive features, such as environmental and landscape resources, food and wine production, and energy production. On the other, they are by definition fragile environments, disrupted by the contradictions of international tourism, climate change, limited infrastructures and services, rural abandonment, and demographic decline. This book offers credible solutions for the sustainable development of mountainous regions as a legacy of Winter Olympics. It is an essential resource for scholars, professionals, and policy-makers in the fields of urban planning and design, architecture design, geography, sociology, and economics. Andrea Arcidiacono (PhD) is Associate Professor at the Politecnico of Milano (DAStU), where he coordinates the BSc Program in Urban Planning, and is a board member of the PhD Program in Urban Planning, Design and Policy. He is Scientific Director of the Land Take Research Centre (CRCS) and, since 2016, Vice-President of the National Institute of Planning (INU). He is a member of the editorial board of the journal Urbanistica and authored over 150 scientific publications. Stefano Di Vita (PhD) is Researcher in Urban Planning at the Politecnico di Milano (DAStU). His research focuses on spatial dynamics of economic transition (including temporary events and digital innovation), planning processes, tools, and mechanisms of urban change (from big projects to micro-scale regeneration), and spatial phenomena, strategies, and actions targeted to international repositioning and regional rescaling of cities. He is a member of the editorial board of the journal Territorio and authored over 70 scientific publications

Book A New Era for the Olympic Games Following a Sustainability Path

Download or read book A New Era for the Olympic Games Following a Sustainability Path written by Mario Nicoliello and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving from the theoretical paradigm of sustainability applied to events, this chapter proposes the case of Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games as an example of an innovative sporting event capable of setting sustainability as the most important lever of the project. During the work, the choices in the field of sustainability made by the organising committee will be illustrated, a comparison between the future 2026 Winter Games and those of the past will be presented, and finally the case will be analysed in light of previous literature. The results show that sustainability has gained increasing importance over time, appearing in all the chapters of the Milan-Cortina 2026 bid document. Compared to the previous literature, this chapter fits into the trend of case studies of application of the Olympic Agenda 2020 and confirms how this new vision has changed the concept of the Olympic Games, also in terms of sustainability.

Book Emerging links between Alpine landscape heritage and mega events in the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics

Download or read book Emerging links between Alpine landscape heritage and mega events in the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics written by Zachary Mark Jones and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The upcoming Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics represents a new approach to hosting the Olympic Games as it will be the first ever to be shared by two separate cities, several hundreds of kilometres from one another. While the bidding dossier recognizes the potential impact on built heritage, from the Piazza Duomo in Milan to the Arena in Verona, it largely frames heritage issues in relation to promoting sustainability and tourism assets. In this way the dossier maintains a limited understanding of both local and especially landscape heritage meanings and values that risks reducing heritage to becoming a mere backdrop for the 2026 Olympics. This chapter represents an initial investigation into the possible links between Alpine landscape heritage and mega-events, reflecting upon the possible issues that may arise in the case of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games as planned in the bidding dossier.

Book The Long standing Issue of Mobility at the Olympics

Download or read book The Long standing Issue of Mobility at the Olympics written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Olympic Agenda 2020 allows the sprawl of Olympic venues over larger territories, theoretically facilitating the alignment of event requirements with the needs of the intensively growing contemporary urban areas. However, the larger the host territory, the more complex becomes its mobility planning, as transport requirements for participants still have to be fulfilled, and the host populations still expect to inherit benefits from any investments made. The objective of this paper is to identify and discuss new challenges that such modifications bring for mega-event mobility planning. First, based on the academic literature of case studies of previous Olympic cities, a theoretical framework to systematize the mobility problem at the Olympic Games is proposed for further validation, identifying the dimensions of the related knowledge frames. Second, the mobility planning for the case study of the first ever Olympic region--the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Games--is described.

Book Megaproject Management

Download or read book Megaproject Management written by Edoardo Favari and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book investigates the various aspects characterizing Megaprojects from numerous perspectives and by integrating different disciplines: engineering, economics, business organization, human resource management, law, etc. It represents the first output of MeRIT (the Megaproject Research Interdisciplinary Team), and focuses on the intrinsic and unavoidable complexity of Megaprojects. The chapters have intentionally not been standardized, and humanistic topics are not separated from technical ones: this way of reading and interpreting Megaprojects through the cross-pollination of various disciplines reflects the MeRIT approach. Addressing the complexity involved in Megaprojects requires the use of a hermeneutic circle of sorts: understanding the project as a whole is achieved by referring to the specific parts, while each part can only be understood in relation to the whole. This circular approach appears to be the only one applicable to Megaprojects: no final destination, no final synthesis can be achieved. This volume consists of eight chapters written by researchers in law, economics, sociology, business organization, engineering, architecture and landscaping. The topics covered will be relevant to researchers, practitioners involved in the development of Megaprojects, and policymakers at the EU level.

  • ISBN : 1000953149
  • Pages : 108 pages

Download or read book Olympic Laws written by Mark James and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-28 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olympic Laws: Culture, Values, Tensions is the first book to analyse fully the Olympic legal framework and its application to the IOC and the Olympic Games through a socio-legal lens. It opens up a new window into understanding the Olympic Games across recent iterations of the Games and on to future Games. The book begins by defining the parameters of the emergent legal sub-fields of Sports Law, lex Olympica and Olympic Law, through the identification of the sources of these Olympic Laws and their underpinning norms. It then uses a series of case studies to demonstrate how lex Olympica has evolved as a means of defending the Olympic Movement from unwanted legal interventions, how Olympic Law has been created to protect the commercial rights vested in the Games, and how the legacies created by this unique category of law have a lasting impact on host cities and beyond. It concludes with a call that the IOC should recalibrate its relationships with prospective hosts and the participating athletes by requiring specific adherence to the Fundamental Principles of Olympism. This is essential reading for any student or researcher with an interest in Olympic studies, sports law, or socio-legal studies or any practising lawyer or events professional looking to better understand the impact and institutions of mega-events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook provides a succinct overview of sport in the Middle East, drawing in scholars from a wide variety of geographical and disciplinary backgrounds (history, politics, sociology, economics and regional studies), with different methodological approaches, to create the ‘go-to’ text on the subject. After the introduction, 33 chapters from leading subject experts cover areas including history, politics, society, economy and nationhood. The authors help shed light on how certain Middle Eastern countries have become increasingly active in international sports, and the efforts made to positioning themselves as the new global ‘sports hubs’. Split into five sections, the book offers a multi-disciplinary analysis of a diverse range of sports across the geographic Middle East, including football, mixed martial arts, rugby, athletics and cycling. The authors highlight and respond to issues such as the naturalisation of athletes, female athleticism, sports media and supporter cultures. The Routledge Handbook of Sport in the Middle East stands apart from previous research through offering first-hand accounts of sport in the area from authors who live and work in the region or have a history of regularly visiting and conducting research in the region. It will be of interest to academics and students alike, in the fields of Middle East politics, sport, sport in the Middle East, international relations, governance and sociology.
