体育的本质及体育整体观的建立

Essence of physical education and whole concept of sports

我国对"体育"概念及其本质的研究起步较晚。我国古代有与体育相关的文化内容,但现代体育则是在19世纪末传入我国的。我国学界曾就体育的内涵和本质,展开过广泛的讨论。体育的内涵随着社会的发展而不断丰富,我们应该建立一种发展的体育整体观,而不能将体育的本质仅仅限定为"增强体质的教育"这一个方面,否则便踏入本质论、实体论和还原论的误区。

The history of studying the concept of physical education is short in China. There was sports -related culture in ancient China while modem PE was introduced into China at the end of the nineteenth century. The meaning and essence of PE have been discussed widely in Chinese aca- demic circles. It is found that they develop with social development. So while studying the issue, in- stead of limiting it in a single domain such as constitution education, we need a whole concept of PE in order to escape from the misunderstanding of the theories of essence, entity and reduction.
