Mega Events and Their Effect on Mesoeconomics

Abstract

The chapter proposes an analysis that claims the importance of phenomena successfully revealed only in view of mesoeconomics. The authors argue that the economic processes in the field of organizing events should not be conceived merely as resulting from macro- and micro-level relationships but rather as resulting from relationships on mesoeconomic level (where a large number of unresolved and unexplored issues still exist), discussed by the authors in terms of the black box relationships on the mesoeconomic level. The main aim of this study is to investigate a specific mega event so as to trace and analyze the roles of the operators at the three levels of social-economic activity, and finally to identify the specific roles of the operators functioning at the mesoeconomic level. Making up a small part of scientific investigation in interdisciplinary research, the chapter proposes further perspectives for a proper application of mesoeconomics when discussing issues bridging micro-economics and macro-economics.
