Contemporary Globalization and Recent Olympic Leadership
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Through the lens of contemporary globalization, this chapter examines the presidential leadership of Juan Antonio Samaranch and Jacques Rogge. Deane Neubauer’s thoughts on contemporary globalization offer a frame for examining the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) full embrace of commercial revenue through the sale of television rights and the genesis of the Olympic Program (now Olympic Partners). Samaranch’s vision with respect to revenue generation, necessitated in large measure due to the IOC’s compromised financial circumstances in the late 1970s, transformed the organization. Globalization and its pervasive effects on the world’s economy and industry of sport were central considerations for both Samaranch and Rogge. No longer an institution that avoids commercial links for fear of their influence on the Olympic message, as was the case under the likes of Avery Brundage (1952–1972), the IOC today is staffed by skilled professionals whose focus is nurturing the Olympic brand and courting corporate executives.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
