Parts of this chapter draw upon and develop ideas first published in my book Race, Sport and Politics (2010, Sage) and also from the introduction to The Blackwell Companion to Sport (edited by David Andrews and Ben Carrington, 2013). I would like to thank the participants at the ‘Sport Mega-events and the Crisis of Youth Exclusion’ symposium held at Goldsmiths College, London on April 20-21 2012, organised by the Open Society Foundation and the British Council where I presented an early version of this chapter. Finally Max Farrar, Michelle Moore, Simone Browne and Mark Perryman provided insightful feedback on an early draft, thanks to you all.
