    GAMES INFORMATION The Olympic & Paralympic Movement The International Olympic Committee (IOC) was created in 1894 and the fi rst Olympic Games of the modern era opened in Athens on April 6, 1896. The goal of the Olympic Movement is to build a peaceful and bet- ter world by educating youth through sport, by bringing together ath- letes from all countries in sincere and impartial competition, and by sharing with a spirit of friendship, solidarity, and fair play. No discrimina- tion of any kind is allowed against any country or person on grounds of race, religion, or politics. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) was founded in 1989 and is one of the largest sport organizations in the world. Representing the vast majority of athletes with a disability, it has taken sport to a new and higher level, providing unique opportunities from a developmental to an elite sport level. Today, thousands of athletes participate in more than 300 international competitions every year all over the world. Through its ideals and activities, the IPC seeks the continuous global promotion of the values of the Paralympic Movement, with a vision of inspiration and empowerment. Every person or organization that plays any part whatsoever in the Olympic and Paralympic Movement must accept the supreme authority of the IOC and the IPC and shall be bound by their rules. The Olympic and Paralympic Games are held every four years, at which time athletes of all nations affi liated with the worldwide Olympic Movement are assembled for fair and equal competition. The Olympic Movement celebrates an “Olympiad,” a period of four successive years.

  • CONSTRUCTION of the NATIONAL STADIUM of BEIJING for the 2008 OLYMPICS XUEFEI REN Michigan State University
    ARCHITECTURE AND NATION BUILDING IN THE AGE OF GLOBALIZATION: CONSTRUCTION OF THE NATIONAL STADIUM OF BEIJING FOR THE 2008 OLYMPICS XUEFEI REN Michigan State University ABSTRACT: This study examines the relationship between architecture and nation building in the age of globalization, with an analysis of the debates and controversies about the National Stadium, the main sports venue for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. The article argues that nationalism, along with the cultural ideology of global consumerism, drives the production of flagship architectural projects in China. The dilemma between nationalism and global consumerism has led state politicians and bureaucrats to opt for a global architectural language to narrate national ambitions. The study reveals the rationale underlying the search for global architecture among political elites in China, as well as its mixed consequences for local cultural discourses and politics. On July 30, 2004, in the Olympic Park in north Beijing, the construction site of the National Stadium was unusually quiet. Huge machines were lying on the ground. Workers had been ordered on a two-month-long vacation. The construction of the National Stadium, which started seven months earlier in December 2003, was suddenly stopped by order of the central government. The direct cause for stopping the construction was a petition submitted to the central government by a group of academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the most distinguished academic establishment in physical sciences and architecture. In the letter, the academicians criticized the stadium design for its “extravagance, huge costs, wasteful use of steel, engineering difficulty and potential safety problems.”1 The central government responded to the petition by ordering a financial review of the project.
