The Games became a great success not only for the host city and country, but also for all the visitors and, most importantly, the athletes. The Games also offered a unique opportunity to leave a lasting legacy to the ben- efit of the population in and around Beijing. The legacy included improved overall living condi- tions as a consequence of the particular measures that were taken by the Beijing authorities in terms of improving infrastructure; the introduction of traffic regulations and a smoking ban; and also the promotion of healthy lifestyles, just to mention a few. Since some of those measures will remain and the awareness of healthy lifestyles has been promoted, there is no doubt that the Games will leave a lasting legacy which will be positive for the health of the Beijing popu- lation. The IOC is extremely pleased by the initiative that was taken jointly by the parties involved in the Beijing Games to have the “Health Legacy of the Beijing Games” documented in this book. The IOC is particularly satisfied that the World Health Organization has decided to publish the book so that the experience of the Beijing Games can be made available to a worldwide Preface audience and thereby be a useful source of information for organizers of future mass gathering events. Dr Jacques Rogge President, International Olympics Committee The successful Beijing Olympic and Paralympic Games of 2008 have left the citizens of Bei- jing and China with many benefits of great worth, amounting to a combination of both material and spiritual wealth. The contribution of the medical and health services constitute an important component of the overall Olympic legacy. In the course of preparing and hosting the Games, the medical and health workers in the capital city worked remarkably well. They ensured public health security, offered high-standard medi- cal and health services, saved lives and in particular provided special medical support to the opening and closing ceremonies of both games. They won high praise for their superb skills and outstanding performances. I would like to seize this occasion to extend my heartfelt thanks to all of them who made important contributions to the success of these games. Medical and health services are a great vocation that is dedicated to the wellbeing of the people. In the new stage of our national development, we should cherish the valuable experience gained in the Olympic medical and health services. It should encourage us to emphasize the human factor, highlight public health services, deepen the reforms of systems and mechanisms, and intensify the construction of grass-roots medical and health institutions. By popularizing health knowledge as we have done, by participating more in health activities, providing improved health security and further extending healthy life, we shall offer better health services to the people. Preface Mr Liu Qi Politburo member, Secretary of the CPC Beijing Municipal Committee, BOCOG President, Beijing, China The Beijing Olympic Games have been widely praised for the spectacular sporting facilities and venues, the impressive application of information technology, the large number of Olympic and world records broken, and the enthusiastic support that the Games received from the population in the host cities and throughout China. But the Beijing Games also have significance for the international public health community, because they were accompanied by some innovative measures to protect the health of visitors and the local population. From the very start, these Games were promoted as the “Green Olym- pics”. The holding of this mass event in seven Chinese cities also generated important policy decisions and actions to address key public health issues, including surveillance and response to health emergencies, tobacco control and food safety. At the invitation of China’s Ministry of Health, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games and the Beijing Municipal and Health authorities, WHO was pleased to support these efforts to promote health and safeguard public health during the Olympics. We are also honoured to be able to participate in the preparation of this volume that highlights the positive medium-and longer-term effects of the public health initiatives inspired by the Games. In documenting this public health legacy, WHO worked in partnership with the Inter- national Olympic Committee and with scientists, academics and programme managers from a variety of Chinese and international agencies associated with public health and the Olympic movement. Preface The findings recorded in this book provide an encouraging but balanced assessment of a criti- cal question. This is: will the momentum sparked by the numerous initiatives and projects for health services, transportation, environment and health promotion be sustained, and continue to yield benefits in the future? We believe that this publication can serve as an instructive example of how mass events can be organized to promote health in a value-added way, bringing both immediate and longer-term benefits for the health of many. Dr Margaret Chan Director-General, World Health Organization Geneva, Switzerland The Beijing Olympic and Paralympic Games captured the attention of the world. With the two Games of equal splendour, China fulfilled its commitment to the international community, and has added what we believe is a successful new chapter to the annals of the Olympic history. Olympic-related health-care operations, sustained by the entire public health sector, particularly the devoted personnel working in Beijing and the co-host cities, went smoothly with great effi- ciency and effectiveness, guaranteeing high-quality events to the satisfaction of the athletes, the people of China and the wider world. Such health-care initiatives have benefited health in general in Beijing and the co-host cities.

  • Julia Anna Jastrząbek the Olympic Games in Post-Socialist
    ROZPRAWY NAUKOWE Akademii Wychowania Fizycznego we Wrocławiu 2019, 65, 1–15 Julia Anna Jastrząbek Poznań University of Economics and Business THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN POST-SOCIALIST CITIEs – a rEAL goAL OR DISTANT FUTURE? CASE STUDIES OF CRACOW AND ALMATY The collapse of the Soviet Union has led to historical transitions in Central and Eastern Europe. The political and economic transformation in countries located in this world’s region has caused their dynamic socioeconomic development and more stable position on the international stage. Regarding the potential of hosting the Olympic Games as an opportunity for infrastructural im- provements, employment boost, and presentation of a positive image and traditions of a country, post-Soviet cities have entered the race for staging Olympic events. The main aim of this article is to analyse the bidding process for the 2022 Winter Olympic Games with an emphasis on case studies from two bidding cities with post-socialist history – Cracow and Almaty. Characteristic patterns and features of both cities’ bids, as well as differences between them are drawn, with conclusions on why these were unsuccessful. Cracow and Almaty’s bid paths in the 2022 Winter Olympics process were different. Cracow pulled out from the race during the applicant phase because of referendum results: the city residents were against the Olympics, while Almaty reached the final phase and lost to Beijing in final voting. It seems that post-socialist countries still have a weaker bargaining position in the bidding process than candidates with advanced and estab- lished economies. Key words: Winter Olympic Games, mega-events, post-socialist cities, political economy INTRODUCTION Since the disintegration process of the Eastern Bloc was accomplished, many new independent countries or those which regained their sovereignty lost after the Second World War have appeared on the world map.
