Urban Reimaging, Heritage and the Making of a World-class City: The Commonwealth Walkway as Mega-event Legacy Project
ABSTRACT Sport mega-events have the capacity to transform host cities both materially and symbolically. This article explores the urban reimaging potentials of mega-event legacies through a case study of the 2018 Commonwealth Games held on the Gold Coast, Australia. For the Gold Coast, one of the desired outcomes of the Commonwealth Games and its legacies was to aid in reorienting the city’s identity from a beachside resort to a mature, sophisticated, world-class city. Drawing on observational fieldwork and literature research, the article considers a particular legacy project – the Commonwealth Walkway, a self-guided heritage walk – to analyze how heritage initiatives factor into strategies for urban reimaging. The article finds that although the Commonwealth Walkway may enhance a sense of continuity in a city usually marked by impermanence, its sanitized, celebratory approach to the city’s colonial past and present undermines both claims of sophistication and intended legacies for social justice.
期刊介绍:
Heritage & Society is a global, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for scholarly, professional, and community reflection on the cultural, political, and economic impacts of heritage on contemporary society. We seek to examine the current social roles of collective memory, historic preservation, cultural resource management, public interpretation, cultural preservation and revitalization, sites of conscience, diasporic heritage, education, legal/legislative developments, cultural heritage ethics, and central heritage concepts such as authenticity, significance, and value. The journal provides an engaging forum about tangible and intangible heritage for those who work with international and governmental organizations, academic institutions, private heritage consulting and CRM firms, and local, associated, and indigenous communities. With a special emphasis on social science approaches and an international perspective, the journal will facilitate lively, critical discussion and dissemination of practical data among heritage professionals, planners, policymakers, and community leaders.
