The Paris Olympic Games could be dubbed the “Seine-Saint-Denis Olympics”. Next summer, one of France’s most notorious neighbourhoods will host around 70 Olympic competitions. All eyes will be on the impoverished area. The event raises a lot of hope, but also a lot of anger, as 16 million tourists are due to pour into the area. French police have launched the Olympics’ Operation Zero Crime program, but with soaring unemployment and crime rates, Seine-Saint-Denis has a huge challenge ahead.
