Book Synopsis The Olympic Games and Cultural Policy by : Beatriz Garcia
Download or read book The Olympic Games and Cultural Policy written by Beatriz Garcia and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how cultural policies are reflected in the design, management and promotion of the Olympic Games. Garcia examines the concept and evolution of cultural policies throughout the recent history of the Olympic Games and then specifically evaluates the cultural program of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. She argues that the cultural relevance of a major event is highly dependent on the consistency of the policy choices informing its cultural dimensions, and demonstrates how such events frequently fail to leave long-term cultural legacies, and are often unable to provide an experience that fully engages and represents the host community, due to their over-emphasis on an economic rather than a social and cultural agenda.

Download or read book The Cultural Olympiad, Art and the Olympic Games written by Beatriz Garcia and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion that the Olympic Games should complement the showcasing of elite sports competitions with a programme of arts and culture was central to the vision of Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Movement. It is a principle inspired by Coubertin's interpretation of the Ancient Greek Games tradition, which involved the showcasing of human excellence in a variety of forms, from athletics to music and poetry. However, the Olympic cultural programme or 'Cultural Olympiad' has a mixed history and is one of the least visible components within the Olympic Games hosting process. This article starts with a historical overview of Olympic arts and culture programmes, from their original presentation in the form of Olympic art competitions to their latest incarnation as four-year Cultural Olympiads and its increased prominence at the Winter Games. The article then discusses key thematic trends and priority objectives over time, followed by an outline of their varied delivery formats. The article reflects on ongoing challenges for the Cultural Olympiad, in particular, the impact of Olympic branding guidelines and funding structures, which have affected the visibility and recognition of cultural initiatives at Games time. It ends by touching on the new cultural frameworks emerging in the aftermath of the IOC's "Olympic Agenda 2020" strategic roadmap and the opportunities this may bring for stronger associations between Olympic sport and art programming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A major contribution to the study of global events in times of global media. Owning the Olympics tests the possibilities and limits of the concept of 'media events' by analyzing the mega-event of the information age: the Beijing Olympics. . . . A good read from cover to cover." —Guobin Yang, Associate Professor, Asian/Middle Eastern Cultures & Sociology, Barnard College, Columbia University From the moment they were announced, the Beijing Games were a major media event and the focus of intense scrutiny and speculation. In contrast to earlier such events, however, the Beijing Games are also unfolding in a newly volatile global media environment that is no longer monopolized by broadcast media. The dramatic expansion of media outlets and the growth of mobile communications technology have changed the nature of media events, making it significantly more difficult to regulate them or control their meaning. This volatility is reflected in the multiple, well-publicized controversies characterizing the run-up to Beijing 2008. According to many Western commentators, the People's Republic of China seized the Olympics as an opportunity to reinvent itself as the "New China"---a global leader in economics, technology, and environmental issues, with an improving human-rights record. But China's maneuverings have also been hotly contested by diverse global voices, including prominent human-rights advocates, all seeking to displace the official story of the Games. Bringing together a distinguished group of scholars from Chinese studies, human rights, media studies, law, and other fields, Owning the Olympics reveals how multiple entities---including the Chinese Communist Party itself---seek to influence and control the narratives through which the Beijing Games will be understood. digitalculturebooks is an imprint of the University of Michigan Press and the Scholarly Publishing Office of the University of Michigan Library dedicated to publishing innovative and accessible work exploring new media and their impact on society, culture, and scholarly communication.
