London's bid to host the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games was based upon the event providing a significant catalyst for the regeneration and renewal of East London and was more about social, cultural and economic aspects than sport. Drawing upon historical, cultural, economic and socio-demographic perspectives, this book examines the role of a sporting mega-event in promoting urban regeneration and social renewal.
