First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xiv + 217 pages, NOT ex-library. Book appears unread, minor handling wear. Clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is a multidisciplinary volume that explores the social, cultural, and political significance of the infrastructures that underpin events. While traditional event management often treats infrastructure as a purely operational necessity (e.g., power cables, barriers, toilets), this book uses it as an analytical lens to investigate wider societal impacts. Core Themes and Structure: The book is divided into three primary sections that reframe the relationship between events and their material or social frameworks: - Infrastructuring Space [examines the physical and spatial relationships between major events and their host cities; it critiques "white elephant" infrastructures- expensive, underused facilities left behind by mega-events - and the neoliberal urbanism that drives them]; - Event Infrastructures as Expressions of in/Equality [investigates how infrastructure can reinforce or challenge social hierarchies; topics include the "exclusive" VIP experience at UK music festivals and how strategic "infrastructuring" can transform attitudes in settings like refugee camps]; - Events as Infrastructure [flips the perspective to argue that events themselves can function as "soft infrastructure" for urban development, learning, and digital community-building]. Key Case Studies: The volume includes a diverse range of international examples, such as: - Formula 1 street circuits and the conflicts they create in urban spaces; - The Tumaini Festival in Malawi's Dzaleka Refugee Camp; - Mega-events in Spain, Argentina, and Italy; - The Maltese Festa and its evolution in the digital era. The work is intended for researchers and advanced students in fields such as critical event studies, sociology, geography, and urban planning.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Innovative and the first of its kind, this informative and multidisciplinary book explores the socio-cultural significance inherent in event infrastructures.While mainstream event management literature addresses event infrastructures mainly through its operational relevance, this carefully compiled edited volume takes infrastructures as an analytical point in respect to its social, political, economic and cultural potential of the study of events. Borrowing from the ongoing social scientific debates on the geography, sociology and anthropology of infrastructures, critical questions are posed in relation to the event contexts. With references to events in Argentina, Malawi, Spain and the UK, among others, the volume combines an international perspective with a highly relevant subject for contemporary event management education.By bringing together theoretical as well as empirical readings on the question of event infrastructures from a critical point of view, the debates are relevant to practitioners and researchers as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students in the field of events, leisure, tourism, anthropology, sociology, geography and urban planning among others. Innovative and the first of its kind, this informative and multidisciplinary book explores the socio-cultural significance inherent in event infrastructures. This item is printed on demand.
