This book examines the changing nature of opposition to bidding for
and hosting the Olympic Games in contemporary American cities. It
explores and critiques the process by which cities bid for the
Olympics in the current context of the International Olympic
Committee's changing bid requirements and from the social justice
perspectives of Olympics opponents. Using detailed case studies of
the Olympic bids in Chicago, Boston, and Los Angeles, it shows how
opposition to bidding for and hosting the Olympics has changed
dramatically in American cities.
