Contesting the Olympics in American Cities
Andrew Young and the making of modern Atlanta , by Andrew Young, Harvey Newman, and Andrea Young
"Andrew Young and the making of modern Atlanta, by Andrew Young, Harvey Newman, and Andrea Young." Journal of Urban Affairs, 40(7), pp. 1032–1033
Contextualizing Olympic Legacies
This article examines the making of Olympic legacies. All cities bidding to host the Olympics after 2012 are now required to describe sports and non-sports legacies in their bid books, and this will become a consideration in awarding the Games. A review of the literature on the impacts of hosting the Games and on conceptualizing Olympic legacies shows that both have advanced in recent years. Yet an examination of the aftermath of hosting the Olym…

Mega-events, Urban Development, and Public Policy
As cities compete for jobs and capital in the context of limited federal aid and increasing global economic competition, a new and potentially high-risk public policy strategy for stimulating local economic growth has emerged.

How and why do American cities commit their resources to seeking a mega-event? And, if …
Olympic Cities
As cities compete for jobs and capital in the context of limited federal aid and increasing global economic competition, a new and potentially high-risk strategy for stimulating local economic growth has emerged.

We examine how the mega-event strategy has played out in the three US cities w…
Antigrowth Politics or Piecemeal Resistance
Regime theory predicts that opponents of a regime’s pursuit of economic development will have limited prospects for success. Some scholars, however, contend that evidence of widespread growth control movements poses a challenge to regime theory. The authors assess the viability of growth opponents when confronting an active growth regime under conditions that should enhance the prospects for the development of an antigrowth movement by examining …
Antigrowth Politics or Piecemeal Resistance? Citizen Opposition to Olympic-Related Economic Growth
Is governance the lost hard “G” in Los Angeles
Implementing Economic Development in Middle America
Economic development was the synonym for urban policy in the 1980s. No longer an exclusive policy concern for older, larger cities located in the economically ravaged areas suffering from capital flight, now urban economic development is the preoccupation of city governments regardless of size or region. Although this policy terrain has received scholarly attention, most of this effort has been focused on large cities located in the industrial mi…
