Edited by a leading scholar in the field, this new title from
Routledge's Critical Perspectives on Business and Management series
is a four-volume collection of canonical and cutting-edge research
in Event Management. The origins of the serious study of Event
Management are comparatively recent, but the subject has evolved
rapidly, often drawing on scholarship, research, and practice from
a number of other disciplines and cognate areas-primarily, Sports
Studies, Leisure Studies, and Hospitality Studies, but also
Business Studies, Organization Studies, Management Studies,
Political Science, and Sociology. Event Management is now a vibrant
and dynamic field of study and research, and the sheer scale of the
growth in its output makes this collection especially timely. A
wide range of social-science journals have published Event
Management-related material and this collection makes readily
available foundational pieces of scholarship-as well as
cutting-edge research-from these disparate, and sometimes less
accessible sources, and from other publications, some of which are
no longer in print. Event Management provides a complete overview
of the core and emergent issues in the field with a particular
focus on the business, economic, and governmental aspects of
events, especially issues of strategy formation and operational
management. As well as bringing together the key studies and
journal articles that have shaped Event Management, the collection
will be welcomed as the first mapping of an area that to date has
lacked an interdisciplinary synthesis. The thematic organization of
the collection, together with the editor's introduction and
commentary on the collected texts, will make sense of the wide
range of approaches, theories, and concepts that have informed
Event Management. It is an essential work of reference, destined to
be valued as a vital research resource by all scholars and students
of the subject.
