The Community of Common Destiny of Sports and City in the New Era: Theory, Demonstration and Governance

Abstract

People’s health and development depends on the community of common destiny of sports and city. The study takes the value attribute of sports and the function orientation of the city as the logical basis, follows the rationale of Marxist philosophy, and makes a systematic analysis on the basis of symbiosis theory and practical demonstration. The study holds that there are obstacles to building the community, such as the deterioration of symbiotic environment, the dissimilation of symbiotic unit and the ossification of symbiotic pattern. We should insist on the harmony between man and nature, the core socialist values, the principles of innovation and reciprocity, and break down the obstacles in order to promote the mutualism between sports and city. Recent years, the development of sports and city has gradually walked into people’s horizons. For example: the host cities of Olympic Games, Asian Games and National Game have got people’s attention, especially along with the rising of city marathon, the attention to sports and city has increased. After 2008 Beijing Olympics, China has put forward a slogan of from a big country of sport to a powerful one, The Gov. [2014] Reference No. 46 has pointed out the unique function of sports in people’s livelihood, obtaining employment, economic growth, carrying forward national spirit and enhancing national cohesion and cultural competence, it also let people realize the position and role of sports in city development. Sports as a cultural phenomenon, its existence and development can’t leave the space-time interface. City develops with the help of sports and provides platform for sports to develop as well. However, how is the relationship between sports and city? How to balance the development of both sides are not the topics that only China has to care about but all the countries should do. The Logic Base of Community of Common Destiny of Sports and City in the New Era To clarify the relationship between sports and city, we need to answer the question of what is sport and city. Only know their connotation can we know their interlaced logic starting point. The Production Conditions: The Value Property of Sports In Chinese ancient time, sports showed in classical six arts, like ‘preserve health’, ‘encourage martial spirit’, ‘wrestling’, in ancient Greece, sports was also called ‘competition’,’ training’, ‘athletics’. The concept of modern sports is divergent, but the concept defined by abroad cannot do without education, body movements and social cultural activities. From the angles of education and body movements, sports express its own function, it’s the internal value. From social cultural activities, sports express a kind of deuterogenic function, it’s the external value. With the development of modern society, the external value of sports is increasingly showing its unique role, and the trend is getting more obvious. The Practical Platform: The Functional Localization of City With the development of human society, city becomes the topic that people focused and researched. For example, K. J. Barton, British economist thought, city located in a net system that interweaved by the spatial economical markets. Lenin has pointed out that city was the center of economy and International Conference on Advanced Education, Management and Humanities (AEMH 2019) Copyright © 2019, the Authors.
