چکیده
با ورود رسانه‌های اجتماعی، شبکه‌های اجتماعی آنلاین نیز به عنوان یکی از جدیدترین مباحث مدیریتی مورد توجه قرار گرفته است. شبکه‌های اجتماعی در ترویج و گردش اطلاعات رویدادهای بزرگ ورزشی نقش مهمی بازی می‌کنند. با توجه به این مسئله، هدف تحقیق حاضر بررسی و مقایسه نحوه ترویج بازی‌های المپیک ریو 2016 و توکیو 2020 در رسانه‌های اجتماعی است. برای بررسی شبکه ترویج بازی‌ها از رویکرد تحلیل شبکه اجتماعی استفاده شد که تمام توییت‌های صفحه رسمی این دو المپیک از بستر توییتر استخراج شدند. از صفحه رسمی المپیک ریو 2256 توییت و از صفحه رسمی المپیک توکیو 3287 توییت به دست آمد که در نهایت 436 توییت از المپیک ریو و 905 توییت از المپیک توکیو وارد تحلیل شدند. یافته‌ها نشان دادند که در هر دو المپیک ورزشکاران از نظر تعداد بازیگران در شبکه، نسبت به سایر ذی‌نفعان بیشتر بوده‌اند. درعین‌حال، وزن ارتباطات سازمان‌های بین‌المللی ورزشی بیشتر از سایر ذی‌نفعان بوده است. تحقیق حاضر نشان داد اگرچه ورزشکاران نسبت به سازمان‌های ورزشی ملی و بین‌المللی از طرفداران و در نتیجه دنبال‌کنندگان بیشتری برخوردار هستند از همین رو بیشتر می‌توانند به ترویج بازی‌ها کمک کنند؛ اما وزن ارتباط با سازمان‌های بین‌المللی ورزشی گویای این است که کمیته برگزاری بازی‌های المپیک با سازمان‌های بین‌المللی ورزشی مانند فدراسیون‌های جهانی ارتباط مستمری دارد. تحقیق حاضر نشان داد ترویج رویدادهای ورزشی در رسانه‌های اجتماعی بدون به کار گرفتن ذی‌نفعان متعدد ممکن نیست. با این حال با توجه به هدف سازمان‌ها و رویدادهای ورزشی الگوی خاص خودشان برای ترویج برند یا رویداد می‌تواند منحصر به فرد باشد.

چکیده [English]
With the advent of social media, social networks have also emerged as one of the most unexplored management topics. Social networks play an essential role in promoting & circulating information in major sporting events. Concerning this, the purpose of this study is to investigate & compare how to promote the Rio 2016 & Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games on social media. The social network analysis approach was used to examine the Games Promotion Network, for which all the tweets of the official page of the two Olympics were extracted from Twitter. Two thousand two hundred fifty-six tweets were obtained from the official page of the Rio Olympics & 3287 tweets from the official page of the Tokyo Olympics, which finally included 436 tweets from the Rio & 905 tweets from Tokyo. Findings showed that athletes were more numerous in both Olympics than other stakeholders regarding the number of actors in the network. At the same time, the communication weight of international sports organizations has been greater than that of other stakeholders. The present study showed that it is impossible to promote a sporting event on social media without employing multiple stakeholders. However, depending on the purpose of the
