Tourism at the Olympic Games: Visiting the World

This book presents a range of fascinating case studies exploring the social, cultural, political and economic interdependencies between tourism and the Olympic Games. International and multidisciplinary in scope, the book provides unique, and often surprising insights, into the ways in which 'Olympic tourism' relates to issues such as heritage interpretation, religion, and social inclusion, and sheds light on ongoing debates on the 'impact' and 'legacy' of the global mega event. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Tourism and Cultural Change.
