Abstract
This study aims to conduct a systematic review on human rights as related to mega-events (MEs) to locate possible key areas and gaps for further research in the field. A systematic literature review has been undertaken utilizing the databases of Scopus, Web of Sciences, and Google Scholar. A final sample of 127 articles was used for this review exercise. Findings resulted in past research studies classified into six groups and 18 topics for recommending for future research. The findings contribute to theory by identifying and underlining the key areas and research gaps for orientating further studies such as discovering some new phenomena which may elicit relevant research interests. The findings also contribute practically by urging the relevant policy and practice actors to actively seek out the stakeholders entailed in a mega event to minimize its possible adverse effects on the stakeholders.
本研究旨在对与重大事件(MEs)相关的人权进行系统审查,以确定可能的关键领域和差距,以便在该领域进行进一步研究。利用Scopus、Web of Sciences和谷歌Scholar等数据库进行了系统的文献综述。本次审查练习使用了127篇文章的最终样本。研究结果将过去的研究分为6组和18个主题,为未来的研究提供建议。这些发现通过识别和强调关键领域和研究空白来促进理论,从而为进一步研究提供方向,例如发现一些可能引发相关研究兴趣的新现象。研究结果还敦促相关的政策和实践行为者积极寻找大型活动所涉及的利益相关者,以尽量减少其对利益相关者可能产生的不利影响,从而做出实际贡献。
期刊介绍:
Event Management, an International Journal, intends to meet the research and analytic needs of a rapidly growing profession focused on events. This field has developed in size and impact globally to become a major business with numerous dedicated facilities, and a large-scale generator of tourism. The field encompasses meetings, conventions, festivals, expositions, sport and other special events. Event management is also of considerable importance to government agencies and not-for-profit organizations in a pursuit of a variety of goals, including fund-raising, the fostering of causes, and community development.
