Abstract

As an important carrier of the coordinated evolution of national soft power and hard power, the development level of sports profoundly reflects the country's comprehensive governance ability and modernization process. Based on the promotion of the strategic position of sports from the perspective of global governance, the governments of various countries have continuously strengthened the policy preference and resource input to the cause of sports since the 21st century. Among them, China and the United States have formed paradigm achievements in the construction of sports industrialization and competitive sports system based on differentiated institutional endowment. This study uses the cross-case comparative study method to systematically deconstruct the historical evolution track, institutional logic and heterogeneity of the sports industry, and sorts out the origin, course, characteristics and typical cases of the sports industry and competitive sports. The study shows that: (1) the development of Sino-American sports industry has entered a mature period with huge market demand; (2) Chinese competitive sports is characterized by highly centralized management and comprehensive quality training, while American competitive sports is characterized by strong market orientation and development autonomy; (3) the Chinese sports industry is different in development stage, market structure and operation mode, and the degree of financial support of competitive sports is different from the athlete training system, goal and plan. This study aims to gain successful experience in the differences in policy, system and organizational structure between sports industry and competitive sports between China and the United States, so as to provide reference for the development of sports management in China.
