    L’ACCUEIL DES GRANDS ÉVÉNEMENTS SPORTIFS : QUEL IMPACT ÉCONOMIQUE OU QUELLE UTILITÉ SOCIALE POUR LES RÉGIONS ? L’EXEMPLE DE LA COUPE DU MONDE DE RUGBY 2007 EN FRANCE

    No full text
    Une aide publique des grands événements sportifs ne peut être justifiée par une seule étude d’impact économique. Il est nécessaire de mesurer aussi l’utilité sociale dans le cadre d’une analyse coûts/bénéfices. Cela permet de comparer les coûts engendrés pour la communauté d’accueil avec les bénéfices pour la population en termes de bien-être social. Pourtant, il y a toujours une forte demande d’études d’impact économique de la part des pouvoirs publics avant l’organisation de grands événements sportifs, alors que les études coûts/bénéfices sont quasiment inexistantes, d’où des décisions peu rationnelles en la matière. On peut même supposer que les résultats des études d’impact économique aient servi à justifier des décisions prises sur la base de considérations essentiellement politiques. Dans cet article, pour rendre compte à la fois de l’impact économique et de l’utilité sociale de l’organisation d’un grand évènement sportif, nous proposons un test de légitimité que nous illustrons avec l’exemple de la Coupe du Monde de Rugby de 2007 en France. Abstract - The legitimacy of allocating public funds and common resources to the organization of mega sporting events cannot be solely based on an economic impact study. The analysis should also measure the social utility that is generated, and, within the framework of a cost-benefit analysis, compare the costs of the project for the community and the benefits people derive from it in terms of social well-being. Nevertheless, there is a paradox with a strong demand for economic impact studies by public decision makers, while hardly any costs-benefit analyses exist. It is very likely that the lack of such studies has driven to inappropriate public decisions over the past years. Sometimes, economic impact studies have been used, ex post, to justify decisions made on a political level. Here we propose a legitimacy test of such an important event, illustrated through the 2007 Rugby World Cup in France.DÉVELOPPEMENT ÉCONOMIQUE RÉGIONAL, THÉORIE DE LA BASE, IMPACT ÉCONOMIQUE, GRANDS ÉVÉNEMENTS SPORTIFS, COUPE DU MONDE DE RUGBY, ÉCONOMIE DU BIEN-ÊTRE, ANALYSE COÛT-BÉNÉFICE, MÉTHODE D’ÉVALUATION CONTINGENTE

    The importance of foreign spectators’ expenditure in the tourism impact of mega-sporting events

    Special issue: The economics of mega-sporting eventsMany economic impact studies assessed that mega-sporting events can have an influence on the level of economic activity of the host territory. The attraction of many tourists is usually at the centre of the analysis. During the Rugby World Cup 2007 in France, foreign spectators are at the root of most of the economic impact on French regions, with significant differences depending on their nationalities and their sociodemographic profiles. It thus appears that the regional impact of the event is even stronger since the host matches have attracted many foreign spectators with a high level of income and expenditure.Instituto Complutense de Estudios Internacionales (ICEI)TRUEpu
