Sports Mega-Events and the Increasingly Loud ‘Anti’ Voice Play the Game Conference 2011, Köln Dr John Beech
Current IOC bidding procedures 2020 CANDIDATURE ACCEPTANCE PROCEDURE PUBLIC SUPPORT Q 10.11 What is the general public opinion in your city/region and country towards your project of hosting the Olympic Games? If you carry out opinion polls, please specify the following: · Questions asked · Area covered · Dates of opinion poll field work · Sample size Q 10.12 What, if any, opposition is there to your project? Please detail.
TWO KEY TRENDS 1. An increasing awareness that against the predictions of economic benefits from Olympic Games needs to be set a more difficult to calculate set of economic costs See, for example, Blake (2005) 2. The growing development of web-based social journalism, which can facilitate an anti-bid voice Broader context of ‘people power’ internet campaigns: fair trade; consumer groups; anti-planning abuse; conservation of built- environment heritage; anti-vivisection and anti pharmaceutical company; etc. To what extent and in what ways have social journalists given an effective voice to anti-Olympic bid campaigns?
A three-phase research design 1. Comprehensive identification of anti-bid websites 2. Systematic survey of how they are/have been used, and analysis of the results 3. Deeper researcher into case studies selected from the results of phase 2, to include interviews with the social journalists involved Second and third phases to be conducted with Prof Dr Ariane Bagusat , Ostfalia Hochschule für angewandte Wissenschaften
