The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games stand as the most profitable and arguably the most important event in the history of the modern Olympic movement. Fresh off the back of the financially disastrous Montreal Games of 1976 and the politically controversial Moscow Games of 1980 the Olympic movement returned to the United States for the sixth time in an attempt to salvage the economic viability and global prestige of the Olympics. The Los Angeles Olympics proved to be both provocative and polarizing. On the one hand they have been heralded as an overwhelming transformative success ushering the Olympic movement into the modern commercial age. On the other hand critics have repudiated the Games as a manifestation of commercial excess and a platform for western political and cultural propaganda. In conjunction with the 30th anniversary of the Los Angeles Olympics this volume examines their legacy. With an international collection of contributing scholars this volume will span a range of global legacies including the increasing commercialization of the Games the changing participation of women the Communist boycott movement nationalism and sporting identity and the modernization and California-cation of the Games. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport. | The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy

Journeys through Emerging Adulthood An Introduction to Development from Ages 18-30 Around the World

Journeys through Emerging Adulthood An Introduction to Development from Ages 18-30 Around the World

Journeys through Emerging Adulthood takes the reader on a tour of contemporary transitions to adulthood reporting on the latest cross-national and cross-cultural research into young adulthood and separating fact from fiction about this important life phase. Alan Reifman shows how today’s youth are taking more time to enter traditional adult roles and explores the benefits and disadvantages of this gradual emergence into adulthood. This essential textbook navigates the research that reveals the substantial variety in young people’s paths to adulthood. It covers the spectrum of the young adult experience examining the influence that parents have on their grown children’s progress and identity as adults and considering the impact of traditional milestones such as higher education establishing a career forming romantic relationships and becoming a parent. It examines key topics including mental health in emerging adults and the likelihood of substance abuse and how young adults might reach out into the community through volunteerism religious involvement and political activism. Each section includes examples and studies conducted in a range of countries exploring how the journey to adulthood can vary according to cultural context as well as individual circumstance. The book affirms that while there is great variety in how one transitions to adulthood there is no correct path and most people fare well – or even thrive – in adulthood. Featuring end-of-chapter summaries quizzes and activities Journeys Through Emerging Adulthood provides an accessible yet comprehensive overview of this significant life stage connecting fundamental psychological theories with modern social phenomena. Reifman’s text is essential reading for both undergraduate and graduate students of psychology human development and sociology as well as students and researchers of any discipline interested in the path to adulthood. | Journeys through Emerging Adulthood An Introduction to Development from Ages 18-30 Around the World
