Social impacts are increasingly used as one of the main
justifications for staging and funding events, and yet there is
very little empirical evidence on the extent to which these impacts
are realised by different kinds of events or in different settings.
This timely volume fills this gap by being the first to explore the
different social aspects of events, looking in particular at the
role of events in developing social capital, social cohesion and
participation in local communities. Based on cutting edge empirical
research, it evaluatesthe contribution of both cultural and sports
events to social capital, social cohesion, community spirit and
local pride in range of different types of events and settings,
with case studies drawn from Europe, Australia and South Africa. It
therefore furthers knowledge about the social benefits and impacts
of events and significantly contributes to the development of
Events as a discipline. Written by leading academics in this area,
this volume is essential reading for all those interested in Events
Management and Studies.
