Sports Mega-events in Asia is a new publication by Dr Jung Woo (Jay) Lee, academic and lecturer at Moray House School of Education and Sport, and Programme Director of MSc Sport Policy, Management and International Development. Three co-editors were involved in this publication, all external members of the Edinburgh Critical Studies in Sport Research Group.
Focusing on mega-events in sports across all of Asia, the most culturally diverse continent, this book is the first scholarly publication on this topic. This book includes the impact these events have on politics, economics, and culture - exploring the effect that traits of the host cities and countries can have on these factors.
