摘要

The idea that the Olympics should leave hosts with a 'legacy' has become an increasingly important theme in Olympic and public discourse since the turn of the millennium. This is partly because of the Olympic corruption crisis in 1998/99 and the change of guard in International Olympic Committee (IOC) leadership in 2001, and the need from this time to re-energise the worldwide movement around a reasser-tion of principles. 'Olympic legacy' refers most obviously to the venues and facilities required by the Games and subsequently available for use by host cities (Moragas et al., 2003). However, in my view we need more expansive and sociological concepts of Olympic legacy. These should at least include the impact of the event on public sport participation in the host country. In addition, they should include, among other things, the cultural legacies of people's collective memories both national and international. Most people in Britain and also around the world will not be able to attend the Games in London in 2012. But many will nonetheless participate and 'see' it by watching it on television, and on this basis they are likely to remember some of the Games' sport highlights or newsworthy events. This media aspect is important culturally and sociologically in constructing the event as being both of potential personal significance to people and also as an historical and cultural reality.
