Investments in sport, events and tourism in cities and wider
regions are part of nascent regeneration strategies linked to
transitioning economic bases and place images. While it is
important to consider physical regeneration, there is a range of
subsequent benefits and opportunities brought about through
regeneration that considers social impacts, communities and how
investments and developments influence how people interact in
transformed spaces. This book brings together a collection focusing
on the diverse range of approaches and perspectives of
regeneration. Twelve chapters outline and bring together critical
perspectives of regeneration from scholars in different parts of
the world. This collection critically assesses some of the key
factors impacting upon regeneration initiatives in relation to
sport, events and tourism. By doing so, this book assesses if new
opportunities have arisen from developments, increasing the demands
and needs of locals and tourists, or if transformations result in
exclusion - thus challenging who regeneration is for. This book
will be valuable reading for students and academics interested in
tourism studies, events planning, sport and leisure studies or
development studies, as well as the wider social sciences.
