Igniting A New Legacy: The Olympics And Sustainable Development At The Tokyo Olympic Games, Alena Ulrichova
Master's Projects and Capstones
With a decreasing number of cities bidding to host and organize the Olympic Games, we see that various places find the prospect of embarking on this mega-event project less appealing and lucrative then in the past.

In response, Kim Jong-un has subtly shifted away from the state ideology of …
