Sommario/riassunto

Barcelona 92: A Legacy Case Study examines the effects of the organisation of Barcelona’s Olympic Games in 1992. Divided into five compelling chapters, the authors discuss issues concerning the definition of legacy, whilst also presenting new models of legacy management and measurement methods, and providing an in-depth examination of sporting, economic and social dimensions. This book offers the most significant studies and research on the 92 Olympics to date, presenting cutting-edge proposals for comparing different Olympic hosting cities into the future.
