A Study Of Problems And Counter Measures Existing In Social Sports Development In Constructing The Harmonious Society

The economic development and the social development are the two important issues that are universally concerned by the international community. People more and more profoundly realize that social development should be put at an important position while developing the economy. If the economic growth does not synchronize with the social development and progress, many social contradictions and social problems will inevitably arise. After implementing the reform and opening up policy for several years, the nation's comprehensive strength has been enhanced and its rank in the international community has also been promoted. However, the gap between the rich and the poor has appeared and is being widen. If the present condition can not be improved, any kind of social contradictions or problems may appear which leads to an unstable society and turbulent economic development environment. As a result, the sound economic and social development will be definitely affected. Therefore, Chinese government under the new historical condition proposed on its own initiative the strategic mission to construct the socialist harmonious society, aiming at alleviating and eliminating each kind of social contradictions so as to build a good social environment for its economic development.The sports, as a way to build a healthy body and a healthy mind and to promote the function of individual socialization , plays an important role in satisfying people's physiology and the psychological demand, improving the quality of human life and promoting social stability. Meanwhile, the sports, as an important constituent of social culture, reflects not only the progressive degree of material civilization and spiritual civilization in a society but also the perfective degree of human beings. In the critical moment of constructing the socialist harmonious society, the sports, which is called "the safety valve in modern society" and "the miniature of social competition", can help people divulge the mood and reduce unstable factors in the society. Therefore, the advantage of sports to the maintenance of social stability will definitely be helpful to the construction of socialist harmonious society. The full scale development of the society has urged the social need for sports, which is decided by the objective law of social product development instead of the people's desires or subjective wishes.This article, based on the theories of sociology, philosophy and logic, tries to analyze and elaborate the relationship between the harmonious society and the social sports with the methods of literature, interview and logic analysis. The conclusions are the following: 1) The non-balanced economic development creates great regional differences in sports expenditures, sports fields and facilities and investment in sports development, which leads to non-balanced development in social sports between the eastern and western areas, the developed regions and undeveloped regions. 2 )The dual structure system of the city and countryside is the key issue to hinder the construction of harmonious society and the crucial factor which affects the coordinated development of social sports in China. 3 ) The appearance of disadvantaged groups is another factor that hinders the construction of harmonious society. The economic, political and cultural disadvantages deprive them of material safeguard, policy security and intelligence support in participating social sports. The author proposes a series of suggestions from the aspects of reform on social sports system, the legislative work on sports as well as the increase of people's body-building consciousness in order to impel the healthy development of social sports and the construction of socialist harmonious society.
