Abstract
Abstract The purpose of this article was to further explore the emergence of legacy and the process through which it becomes a taken-for-granted institutional rule that has impacted how organizations plan and implement the Games. More specifically, this article reviews why and how legacy was adopted, the forces at play, and the subsequent implications on bid and organizing committees and other actors within the Olympic Movement. Institutional theory is applied as a theoretical framework to investigate the emergence and evolution of legacy and its governance. The organizational field under investigation consists of the committees involved in the bidding for and hosting of the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee as the main rights holder, and other actors within the Olympic Movement which impact or can be impacted by the event's legacy (e.g., national and international sport organizations and sponsors). Archival material was used as the primary source of data. This source included multiple types of documentation such as bid documents, candidature files, final reports, and related websites. Institutionalization is an ongoing process. As such, in order to further understand the adoption of legacy into the Olympic Movement, the evolution of the concept was broken down into the pre-institutionalization, semi-institutionalization, and full institutionalization phases as described by Tolbert and Zucker. Managerial implications that arise as a result of the institutionalization of legacy and the subsequent objectification of its governance are discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
