We can get helpful enlightenment from the experience of upgrading arts to a discipline: 5 level one disciplines of arts are accurately designated and clearly defined, on the contrary, as for sport science, not only it is difficult to work out a rational discipline upgrading plan, but also such a sign as ignoring theoretical support oc-curs to discipline construction from time to time. Constructing such an emerging discipline as sports anthropology will make the study of sport science more comprehensive, scientific, and capable of reflecting culturally diversified humanistic feelings.
Key words: discipline construction；sport science；arts；sports anthropology |
