Living with London's Olympics

The quadrennial summer Olympic Games produces the world's biggest single-city cultural event. Drawing on ethnographic work around the London 2012 Games, this book contrasts the rhetoric and reality of mega-event delivery and shows that the notions of beneficial Olympic legacies and delivery benefits for host communities are, for most, unobtainable.

Iain Lindsay is Visiting Lecturer in the School of Sport and Education at Brunel University, UK.
