Horses are perhaps the most common non-human animal to feature in planned events, but although there is considerable research on equestrian sport, there is virtually none on equestrian events. This book begins to address this gap, using the National Championships of the Icelandic Horse as an extended case study to explain in depth the process of managing an event, as well as the larger theoretical implications of events management.
Drawing on diverse viewpoints and theoretical perspectives, the book draws wider comparisons to connect events management to larger themes in the social sciences, such as human-animal relations; nationalism; place branding; event impacts; event experience; and inclusion and exclusion. The book is a contribution to two fields. In relation to human-animal studies, it focuses on how the Icelandic horse breed is marketed and celebrated through top-tier competition; whereas from an events management perspective, it considers the role of the event in community building, the practical and theoretical aspects of running a sustainable equestrian event, and the issues that arise in multispecies event contexts.
This book:
- Uniquely draws together events management and human-animal studies.
- Is formed from empirical research conducted by a multinational team of events management and tourism researchers.
- Uses a single, extended case study to explore a range of themes and issues, both empirically and theoretically.
A valuable resource for researchers of events management, human-animal studies and tourism, this book also provides an in-depth look at end-to-end events management for industry professionals.
In Humans, Horses and Events Management, 19 authors from various countries such as Iceland, Norway, France, UK and Sweden present studies of and suggest strategies for event management including horses. The broad competence of the authors is reflected in the book and contribute to a holistic perspective on events. Focus is the National Championships of the Icelandic Horse, but conclusions drawn from the various studies presented can be extended to other events as well as contribute to the development of event management models and theory.
