It is hoped that Olympic-related security will assist in developing safer neighbourhoods, through measures such as improved lighting, and lead to a reduction in crime and the fear of crime. For example, the Olympic Village, currently in the process of being repurposed into private housing, was granted a new level of ‘Secure by Design’ status, set to inform the construction of future housing developments, presenting a permanent material security legacy to its residents and users. The story of securitising the 2012 Games did not start on 7/7, but evolved over many decades into protection of the Olympic spectacle.
Yet, in many respects, Athens’ (2004) high water mark of elaborate security programming represents a culmination of broader processes of intensifying security that had been in progress since the attacks at the Munich Olympics of 1972. Munich’s utopian low-security experiment was followed by an unequal and opposite reaction of elaborate and intensive security measures that have since become woven into the fabric of Olympic planning. The Montreal, Moscow and Seoul Olympics were characterised by high levels of infantry deployments, whilst the 1992 Barcelona Games, awarded to the city barely a decade after the death of Franco, brought tanks into the city centre.
