ON THE DEFINITION OF THE CONCEPTS OF “PHYSICAL CULTURE” AND “SPORT”

Abstract

The modern concept of quality of life is inextricably linked with the ability of each person to maintain their mental and physical health. Human health today is the highest and absolute good. Today, the very concept of “physical culture” is a unique means of preserving and developing the potential of public health, which directly affects the lifespan of a person. In the article proposed by the author, the organizational and legal features of such concepts as “physical culture” and “sport” are explored. Various points of view related to the theoretical interpretation of these categories are analyzed, and their differences between them for their social and functional purpose are indicated. It justifies the need to distinguish the objects of legal regulation of social relations in the field of physical culture and in the field of sports. The aim of the proposed author of the article is to study the definitions of “physical culture” and “sport” for the correction of the legislation of Ukraine. In this work, general scientific and private scientific (comparative legal, etc.) research methods were used. The author came to the conclusion that in order to avoid misinterpretation of such social phenomena as “physical culture” and “sport” in lawmaking and law enforcement practice, the Ukrainian legislator should distinguish the subjects of legal regulation of social relations in relevant spheres of human social life.
