Recenzii

"As handbooks should do, this collection provides essential, up-to-date, and provocative readings from an international group of researchers and practitioners. The comprehensive framework comes from the UN's sustainable development goals, but the editors have taken the handbook's relevance farther by addressing the many challenges facing the event sector, presenting practical ways forward, and demonstrating the roles events play in broader social, environmental, economic and political domains. You cannot begin an essay, research project, or curriculum design without consulting this material."
-Donald Getz, PHD., Professor Emeritus, The University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
