Description
Why have the Olympic Games always been, in their own way, geopolitical events? How did the Olympic Games in Mexico City in 1968, Moscow in 1980 and Barcelona in 1992 reflect international tensions, despite political neutrality of the Olympics? In 2024, what is at stake for France in the Paris Olympics, against the backdrop of the Israeli-Palestinian and Russian-Ukrainian conflicts? Why have new powers, such as China, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, made the organization of the Games an objective of their strategy of influence?
