520 _aThis book examines the lasting impact of the 2006 Winter Olympics on the city of Turin and the Piedmont region. From urban renewal and pedestrianization to regional transport networks, tourism, and citizen participation, the book highlights the key elements that constitute the enduring Olympic legacy of the Turin Winter Games. It showcases how the city created a new image of itself internationally, transforming Turin from a car-centric industrial hub to a sustainable and vibrant metropolis. Turin was the first Olympic city to pioneer efforts in implementing environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable planning. Bringing together scholars from OMERO, the interdepartmental research center on “Urban and Event Studies” of the University of Turin and from other research centers that have extensively studied the Turin 2006 event, this book offers valuable insights into the long-term impact of hosting the Olympics and the innovative practices that constitute a significant legacy of the Turin Winter Games. Egidio Dansero is Full Professor of Political and Economic Geography at the University of Turin, past Director of OMERO (University of Turin) and President of the Society for Geographical Studies (Florence, Italy). Valerio Della Sala is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Geography at the Autonomous University of Barcelona; member of the Organizing Committee of the Sport Research Institute (IRE-UAB) of the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, and of OMERO (University of Turin).
