Competitive wushu routines, as a form of routines which was gradually developed after the founding of New China, have played demonstrate and leading role in the development of the martial arts because of its standard content and clear rules. However, not everything can rise all the way; so as the development of competitive wushu routines. In that case, the development of competitive wushu routines, as some points of view, is alienated? How to analyze the problems in the development of competitive wushu routines using the theory of alienation? How should it develop? This is what needs to explore in this article.Through summing up the theory of alienation, it can be seen: Alienation as a philosophical concept has its historical origins. Before the Marxist theory of alienation, most of concepts pf alienation is directed to a part of the phenomenon. Marx, through the philosophical considering, exceeded the narrow understanding of alienation of prior philosophers, put it into the history and used as an important concept to present and understand history. So we use the theory of Marxist theory of alienation and analyze the development of competitive wushu routines from the historical and overall perspective and from the angle of historical evolution, but not from the angle of the evolution of some kind of routines or schools. That is from the angle of a particular historical context and Chinese cultural development. From the review we can see the development of competitive wushu routines has gained the due cultural identity and symbols. In the Sino-foreign cultural exchanges, competitive wushu routines have become an amazing window of Chinese"Wu"cultural. Wushu competition Through learning, practicing and competing of competitive wushu routines, it strengthens the exchanges between different cultures; closes the contact of people; makes people in different social backgrounds and cultural traditions understand and tolerate mutually and feel the great strength of Chinese"harmony"spirit. In internal development, through the function of demonstrating, it regulates, guides the management of martial arts and sets up a sample for the development to make the development of martial arts be standardized and systematized.Of course, it is not enough to obtain the corresponding cultural identity in the world. This is only a stage in its development. Because if competitive wushu routines which are founded by adoption and conversion of symbols can not return to traditional culture and embody the profound traditional Chinese culture, it will be assimilated by Western sports. After all, the conversion of symbols can not stand for the same of meaning and the same literal meaning can not stands for that of connotation. To understand the meaning behind the letter, it must have its own meaning and historical background. It must to solve the issue of"Who am I". Therefore, competitive wushu routines should be return to the traditional culture after obtaining the cultural identity and must combine with the historical and cultural connotation of Chinese martial arts consciously and systematically so as to make others accept the extensive and profound Chinese martial arts. This is the performance of self-confidence of Chinese culture, the request of the rising of China's international status and even the mission of embodying the Chinese national culture. But this is not meant reservation the need to pay attention to is: this is not reverting but returning to the excellent cultural traditions based on given the time characteristics.It must be acknowledged that the development of competitive wushu routines which are regulated and developed with drawing lessons from western science has been deviated from the original. However, if only to emphasize the negative role but ignore the positive aspect, it will lose its direction. After all, if the development of competitive wushu routines can not be supported by a strong culture, it is impossible for others to learn from us voluntarily. All we should do is transforming ourselves and exchanging with others in order to convey the richness and diversity of traditional Chinese culture and eliminate the mystique of Chinese martial arts.Culture can not be a rigid system; it has always been developing with the needs of people's social activities. Competitive wushu routines are emerged from the needs of historical development and it will continuously adjust to the needs. Therefore, the purpose of application Marxist theory of alienation to study competitive wushu routines historically and dialectically is to review the development of competitive wushu routines from both the positive and negative aspects, to further develop its positive aspects and change negative factors positive factors and promote the sustainable development of competitive wushu routines...
