Legacy of the Olympic Games in the opinion of students of the International Olympic Academy
Journal Title: Studies in Sport Humanities - Year 2016, Vol 20, Issue
Abstract
The modern Olympic Games are a highly interdisciplinary phenomenon. The current literature abounds with examples of eff ects of this socio-cultural event: long-term, short-term, direct, indirect, expected, unexpected, desirable, and undesirable. Olympic Games result in, among others, economical, ecological, social, cultural, psychological, institutional, political, and logistical eff ects. Top-class sporting events are also infl uential in terms of the development of tourism. The aim of this article is to demonstrate the concept of Olympic legacy in the past years and to show potential results of hosting Olympic Games in a particular country in the opinion of students of the International Olympic Academy.<br/><br/>
