Sport, Globalization, Economy, Health, Public Policy and Power

Summary It starts from demonstrating that sport in globalization became an Atypical Transnational Company of Entertainment and Entertainment (EDTEE), whose objective is to produce a profitable, daily and massive show; It is a leading industry or “tip” of the world economy that concentrates its competitive and economic power in the US, Europe, Japan and China. To unravel the close relationship established between sport and health, with the installation, on the one hand, of the medical infrastructure of the great health industry in EDTEE and, on the other, of the device that produces record-champions of EDTEE in the big health industry; as well as discovering the consequences that it produced: reinforced and expanded the ideological function of EDTEE and the big health industry, empowering them - besides - economically and contributing decisively with the emergence and worldwide development of the welfare industry. It concludes by demonstrating that the public sports policy is a privileged and global way to promote, legitimize and make permanent the sport-health relationship, and raising the need to rethink the sport with the aim of beginning to discuss its improvement and initiate the creation of the theoretical-conceptual and concrete bases of an alternative that should contemplate a new type of relationship with health.

"With income of 5,718 and expenses of 5,380, a positive result of 338 was registered, income increased in relation to 2007-2010 due to the increase in sales of commercialization and transmission rights and the benefits of ticket sales rights that in Previous cycles had been assigned to the Local Organizing Committee, reserves were increased..., reached the 1,523 to the 31-12-2014... The total income is broken down as follows: Events

Transnational Professional Clubs endorsed by the ODM
The main event that they organize-manage are the European Football Championships, endorsed by the respective National and European Federations: "In 2001, Manchester United of England was the most expensive club (1,400 million US $) and was the first to quote on the Stock Exchange. In Spain at the end of the 20th century, football contributed 1% of GDP and, in 1999, in Italy it was the twelfth economic sector "(Altuve [2]: 113 / 115-116). Starting the 21st century, Real Madrid is a Club model: "sponsored in 2008-2009 by Adidas, Audi, Bwin, Mahou Beers, Coca-Cola, Community of Madrid-madrid.org, Rexona For Men, San Miguel, Sanitas, Solán de Cabras and Solaria, is applying a management model that combines the social (UNICEF ambassador) and marketing with the aim of enhancing the exploitation of its brand, transforming its fans into customers".

Independent multinational companies of the MDG
The main event that they organize-manage is the annual Formula One (F1), property of Liberty Media, who bought the F1 for 4,400 million US $ on 07-09- 16. The management of F1 is exercised through the Formula One Group, whose main sources of income are: "TV broadcast is the main form ... according to the English newspaper Autosport can reach more than 300 million US $ and were sold in 67 countries for the 2010 season ... By radio: They have increased, in the US since 25-05 -08-the races were available through SIRIUS 125 of SIRIUS Satellite Radio company that for 2008 had more than 130 channels, was the Partner .

Sportsman-Competitor: Main Work Force of the Show
Professional whose job is to prepare and compete. Their types of employment relationship are: a) It combines the work of representation of your country in the ODM competencies with that performed in one of these scenarios: Professional Clubs whose events endorse the MDG; transnational events endorsed by the MDG; Professional Clubs or transnational events endorsed by the MDG, with the mediation of the State: Cuba case. b) Work on competitions organized by independent Transnationals of the MDG.
The one hundred best sportsmen-competitors paid in 2015: earned 3,200 million US $, 17% more than in 2014; 62 are American (27 MLB baseball); they come from 10 sports disciplines; and 2 are women. In millions of US $ income (including salaries / prizes and sponsorship), the sport discipline and the country of the top 10 are presented: Floyd May weather (300-Boxing-USA

Sponsoring Transnational Companies or "Sponsors"
They buy: a) The organizers-managers of the show, the right to use the symbols and the logo of the events in the advertising of their products.
b) The media spaces to spread their associated advertising and identified with the symbols and logos of the show.

Transnational Media Companies
They broadcast the show, buy the transmission rights to the organizers-managers and sell the spaces to the sponsors for their publicity. Since the 90s of the twentieth century, they have been acting simultaneously as organizers-managers and disseminators of the show.

Transnational Sporting Goods Companies
They provide the products used by competitors: instruments (balls, balls, snowshoes, garrochas, javelins, bicycles, etc.) and on their bodies (shoes and clothing); and sponsor events and athlete-competitors. At the close of fiscal year 31-05-2015, in millions of US dollars: the 10 leading companies (from the US and Europe) had sales of 99,315, led by Nike (USA) and Adidas (Germany) with 30,601 and 19,113, which obtained net profit 3,273 and 723.2, respectively [4].

Public-Fanatic-Consumer
It is the destiny of the show. It is the basis of the operation of EDTEE, whose fundamental objective is the conversion of all the inhabitants of the planet into fanatics of sport, that is, spectators who internalize the advertising messages issued during the events and become compulsive consumers of goods and services. Of the diffused brands.

State
Regardless of the types of governments and their politicalideological orientation, the State through public policy embodied in a legal-legal norm and an administrative-organizational structure (ministries, institutes, secretariats, etc.) with programprojects and budget, has the following functions in the EDTEE [5]: Adapt the Participation of the Country to the Organizational Nature of the Show: When the organizermanager is the ODM, it arranges, prepares and guarantees the participation of its national team in the event. If the organizersmanagers are Transnational Professional Clubs or transnational companies, support the events and contribute to their success.

Produce and Reproduce the Sporting Ideology, Incorporating it into its Ideological Baggage and Legitimizing Itself, Making Sport One of its Ideological Apparatuses:
Regardless of the result of the country's participation (win or lose) in events, the State will legitimate with the support and promotion that makes the sport through public policy, thus operating the process of conversion of sport into an ideological apparatus. Obviously, the legitimacy of the State increases when the country obtains victories -by winning competitions and / or organizing events -that are identified with state management. In addition, the State extends the sports ideology to the rest of the social scenarios.

Financing, Disseminating the Sports Ideology, Exercising Violence and Creating the Conditions that Guarantee the Success of the Show in Its Territory (being the venue):
The operational part of the shows is the responsibility of the National Organizing Committee formed by the host State , private organizations and the national instance of the ODM (in the OG and World Cup are the Olympic Committee and the National Federation) that works with its international instance, which is the highest authority of the event, which in the case of the It is the IOC and in the World Cup it is FIFA. The IOC and FIFA have reinforced and hold absolute power both events and the funding has been transferred to the State: "In September 1995, the IOC announced that as of 2004, the share of television rights granted to Olympic city centers would fall from 60% to 49%, that is, the revenues of the National Organizing Committee will be reduced ... FIFA announced on 03-23-17 that will eliminate the National Organizing Committees ... and will take total control of the organization of the World Cups from 2026 to generate more income, minimize costs and be more effective ... "(Diario Peru 21: 03-04-17; Altuve, 2018: 178-179). "The London 2012 OG cost more than US $ 17,500 million, of which the State financed 83.48% (US $ 14,610 million)" (America, economy, economy, markets and finances: 19-12-12); In the 2014 Soccer World Cup and the 2016 OG of Brazil, the investment was, mainly, public: "It was -according to the State -21 billion US $. For Zimbalist it is between 35-40 billion US $. The final cost has not been specified ..., but ... it is much higher than the state appraisals because investment is missing ...: 1) To compete and win the venue of the events ... 2) At the opening and closing ceremonies ... 3) In the overpricing in the construction and remodeling of the infrastructure " [6].
The State produces and reproduces the sports ideology highlighting the advantages and benefits of hosting a successful event, guaranteed by the investments made and exercising symbolic and physical violence to ensure the normal performance of the show. Obtaining certain remunerations through taxes, by the economic impact generated, etc.

Base of the Power in the Edtee: International Division in Medalls-Champions and in the Economic Benefits
The concentration of power in sport begins with the regressive distribution of the medals-champions, emerging the International Division, that is, the specialization of a small group of countries to win and the vast majority specializing in losing.

International Division in the World Cup Operates on Two Levels a) Winners or Protagonists of the World Cups 1970-2014:
The protagonism is concentrated in Brazil, Federal Germany, Argentina, Italy, France and Spain, which have been the champions and occupied 19 of the 36 positions from 2nd to 4th place, and in much lesser degree, in the countries that occupied the other 17 semifinalist positions: 14 Europe; 2 America and 1 Asia. The specialists in losing are those attending the World Cups that did not reach the semifinals and the rest of the world that participated in the qualifiers. England has prominence with the first places in the World Cups and the largest allocation of seats-countries, and their Clubs bring the largest number of players to the World Cup; America, in second place of countries-places, its protagonism is reduced to Brazil and Argentina and it was assigned the production of players (raw material) exportable to Europe that allows to guarantee the success of the spectacle of the Professional Clubs and the World Cup:   The International Division and concentration of power in sport is extended with its conversion into EDTEE and the deepening of the regressive distribution of the economic benefits produced. With fewer and fewer exceptions confirming the rule, the winning athletes-competitors come from a small group of countries led by the Group of Nine; If we add to this, the transnational companies that organize shows, sponsors, media and sporting goods, are the ones who appropriate the highest volumes of income produced by EDTEE and come from that group of countries, we are facing a competitive and economic cycle that begins and ends in the US, Europe, Japan and China, with an important appropriation of the benefits by the MDG. The public sports policy of these few national states with power in sport is identified and serves their interests and those of their transnational's, while most of the states without or with little power, adapt their public policy to a foreign sports dynamic to your interests.

Edtee and Great Industry of Health and Welfare a) Sports as Producer-Player of Capitalist Ideology:
The establishment of industrial capitalist society based on the principle of performance and cult of the body from a reasonably profitable perspective, materializes in the movement with the transformation -among others-of its ludic aspect, replaced by modern sport, conceived as a comparison of bodily performances to appoint champions, record records or obtain medals and trophies.
Modern sport is the result of industrial capitalism, it is a product of society where -for the first time in historyperformance becomes the central category, in the concept that guides, organizes, determines and serves as a reference for the functioning of the institutions. It arises in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century fulfilling an ideological function, because it produces and reproduces the ideas of performanceproductivity-profitability-linear and infinite progress, State-Nation, ideas-base of capitalist society, and is presented as a space social hierarchy and democratic differentiation, equality, fraternity, noble struggle, peace, fair competition, honesty, in opposition to the conflicts between the capitalist powers that led to the first (28-07-1914 to 11-11-1918) and second World War (01-09-1939 to 02-09-1945).
In globalization, the ideological function of sport has been broadened and perfected with the intervention of the media, producing and reproducing the ideas of: a) To be a universal social space of absolute egalitarianism, in contrast to the aberrant differences in production, consumption and enjoyment of existing goods between nations and between social classes and serving as a justification for such inequalities.
b) The record-champion as a symbol and expression of progress and recognition of individual effort, representation of the Nation-State and synthesis of the greatest human virtues. c) Individual physical perfection based on science and technology, recorded in the record and materialized in the champion's body.
d) The collective physical perfection or corporal wellbeing for all the bodies of the buyers-fanatics-consumer public, achievable through the consumption of the body, by the body and for the body, when contemplating the sports spectacle. Collective happiness is achieved by consuming inherent and / or associated merchandise objects, linked and identified with the sport, particularly with the recordchampion (corporal image of the champion, model of overcoming, healthy body, patriotism-nationalism, etc.) By producing and reproducing the ideas of performanceproductivity-profitability-linear and infinite progress, State-Nation, individual and collective physical perfection, well-being of all and ideal model of human coexistence, sport is presented as an archipelago of happiness in the midst of a storm of unhappiness that is the rest of society, becoming the illuminating beacon to which other social institutions must follow; becoming a source of consolation, hope and resignation, because despite the abysmal social differences in sports we are all equal and the transition to happiness is not so far, it will be achieved as the rest of society look more and more like the sport. This is the ideological function of the sport turned into a Transnational Entertainment and Entertainment Company (EDTEE), it is the globalizing sports ideology.

Health, Sport, Economy and Ideology
The medicine has been: "Since the eighteenth century a fundamental tool in the management of the population and a decisive resource for the incorporation of bodies in the productive order of capitalism," transiting processes whose result "has been an absolute medicalization of society and full identification of the problem of health with the interests of the economy" [8].
In the 20th century, we assist to: "A broad and unlimited process of medicalization" is the unstoppable extension of the medical paradigm in our culture.
With the doctors and their knowledge as decisive, it has been "Imposed by an act of authority and its object is not only related to the disease, but with a broad and diffuse concept of health", it does not recognize the existence of a territory external to the

Journal of Physical Fitness, Medicine & Treatment in Sports
Medical codes and medicine became one of the components of the economy "because it produces wealth for itself given that health becomes a consumer good representing a wish for some and a luxury for others". In other words, "medicine leads to the incorporation of health and disease into the game of the market, with its production agents (laboratories, pharmacists, doctors, clinics, insurers) and with their consumers (the real patients and the potential sick people that we are all) ".
The irruption of health in the economy produces the perverse effect of generating: "An infinite demand and a generalized dissatisfaction of the client, since the increase of the medical consumption does not suppose an improvement of the level of health, unlike how it is promised". What it brings as consequences: 1) The creation of a growing and changing "frontier offer with respect to medicine, which ensures new experiences of physical wellbeing, other nutritious alternatives and other modes of body stylization", covered with "a series of consumer goods that resort to the ideal of healthy life: low calorie food products, programs and instruments of physical conditioning, etc. "2) The infinite demand for health by customers produces enormous economic benefits for large pharmaceutical companies, which they intervene with more prominence in medicalization and decrease that of doctors. "Around this need for intervention ..., a whole industry of commercial interests flourishes. There are, for example, companies that market over time to doctors (usually scarce and, therefore, valuable in the logic of supply and demand) selling it to pharmacists' visitors ... There are also other types of transnational companies, such as International Marketing Services Health or Close Up, which collect information about the medicines prescribed by doctors, build profiles on their prescription habits and design huge databases that are then purchased by large pharmaceutical companies in important figures of money".
In globalization: "The medicalization of society has succeeded ... capture the body as an object of consumption and production of capital. Healthy lifestyles, the care of food, the need to have a body in shape are promoted, not only as a way to reinforce the primacy of individualistic interest, but also as a way to create a market where at first it seemed not exist". The institution of health produces and reproduces the individualist ideology of capitalism and hides the existing authentic power relations, as it is "A mode of relationship of the subject with its own corporeality. A mode of relationship with oneself that is useful for a system that seeks the decomposition of bonds of solidarity between subjects. Individualization works, therefore, as a tool that privatizes or personalizes the structural contradictions of the capitalist system. In this way, the invisibility of these conflicts is ensured and the global order advances in its perpetuation. The health industry, in this sense, would play a decisive role in the construction of an immune society10, of individuals locked in the aseptic space and assured of their privacy, afraid of the contagion that may come from the outside and that embodies alterity" [8].
Sport and health have become important economic activities and are producer-reproducers of capitalist ideology in their specific field of action. They fed each other and simultaneously in the processes of conversion into economic activities and producer-reproducers of the capitalist ideology. The ideal of healthy life and body in the form of medicine finds reciprocity and complement in the idea of corporal well-being for all of sports, is part of the ideological production-reproduction of both institutions in order to justify, make viable and advance their conversion in economic activities: The EDTEE that aims to convert all the inhabitants of the planet into a public-fanaticconsumer of the spectacle that it produces intensively and extensively every day; and the great health industry to cover the infinite and unsatisfied demand for health that it created and creates permanently (in 2016, global health expenditures were just over US $ 3.88 trillion).

A close relationship between EDTEE and the big health industry is established:
a) The entire medical device and infrastructure of the large health industry was installed in the EDTEE: sports medicine with its annexes and similar (nutrition, psychology, technology, etc.), on the one hand, sustains the material production of record-champions feeding the idea of individual physical wellbeing, and, on the other, it becomes a foundation and reference of obligatory and indispensable consumption so that the publicfanatic -consumer of the sport can access the collective physical well-being.
b) The device that produces record-champions (subjecting the body of athletes-competitors in the object of scientific experimentation and in the use of materials and instruments in the preparation, training and competence) of the EDTEE, was installed in the large industry of health, who by reworking it and adapting it to the needs of ordinary people, on the one hand, considerably broadens its offer of services, and, on the other, it is legitimate, promising well-being, a healthy body and a healthy life.
This close and lasting sport-health relationship has contributed decisively to the emergence and worldwide development of the wellness industry at a level that: a) It meets at the World Summit on Wellbeing (GWS) and is defined as: "International organization that brings together the leaders and visionaries from all sectors of the wellness industry: spa, education, tourism, beauty, fitness, nutrition, finance, environment, medicine, architecture, wellness, communities and technology to influence in a positive and determine the future of the global welfare industry. In its edition N.10 made

Journal of Physical Fitness, Medicine & Treatment in Sports
from 17 to 19-10-2016, its objective was to analyze the future of spa and well-being throughout its history, having as host Austria, one of the first countries to develop and market its offer tourism wellness for 25 years that "Today ... has the sixth position in the world ranking in income of welfare tourism and the third in Europe". There was presented the new study of the Global Wellbeing Institute (Global Wellness Institute), revealing that Welfare "is a mega industry of 3.72 billion dollars. It has achieved a growth of 10 I-Fitness 14-13; Go Fit 13-13; Eurofitness 13-13; Forus 12-13; Dream Fit 8-11; Synergym 10-10; Infinit Fitness 10-10; CET10 9-9; O2 Wellness Center 9-9; Holmes Place 9-9; Healthy 5-9; Virgin Active 9-8; Accuracy 7-7; 30 minutes 7-7; AQA 9-6; Vita Liberté 5-3 [11].
Sport and health boosted the development of the welfare industry by contributing decisively to its foundation and providing the potential market: public-fanatic-sports consumer and patient-client of medicine. At the same time, the welfare industry has developed legitimately to sport as a fundamental element of health and reaffirms the institutional validity of health, at the same time that reinforces the attachment of the public-fanatic-consumer to sport and patient-client to medicine.

Sports Clothing and Fashion: Convergence of Sports, Health and Welfare Industry
Initially the sports wardrobe focused its use on activities of or associated with sports. For reasons or demands of the particular dynamics of the EDTEE that requires producing records and champions every day, was incorporating the technological advances to its development that initially allowed only contribute to raise athletic performance, and then popularize sportswear by elaborating it with its specificity but within everyone's reach and for different uses, such as going to work, shopping, etc. This process strengthens the health and wellbeing industries, because garments and devices for athletes-competitors and that can be worn by anyone in varied circumstances, incorporate, among others, the following functions: improve health, control body transpiration, heart rate, lung capacity and muscle oxygenation, correct posture, count calories consumed, etc.
From the use of sportswear, it has become a fashion of sport, "sector that has achieved the perfect combination of practicality and style" [12][13][14][15][16][17]. "Sport has become the new king of fashion. While the brands and fashion chains are introduced to the business, industry specialists reaffirm their leadership with specialization, diversification and a lot of marketing" [4].
In globalization: "Thanks to the technology applied to fabrics, all you need to improve the performance of your exercise routines is, simply, a good sporty look ... The collections of Stella McCartney for ADIDAS ... have a technology ..." named "as Climacool , which favors ventilation and keeps moisture at bay ... For its part, NIKE has also developed a similar technology, called Dri-Fit that repels moisture towards the surface of garments to facilitate its evaporation, emulating the effect known as Flower Lotus. Another of the most interesting and innovative techniques ... is the microencapsulation of active substances, such as deodorants, insect repellents or sunscreens, among others. The

fabrics are made with traditional fibers, which are treated with microcapsules, which can be applied well, during the spinning process or as a finish, once the garment is finished. Under Armor ... has a line with sunscreen incorporated in the fabric, so you can enjoy running, in full sun, without worrying about UV rays ".
We are witnessing a new economic "niche", a new item in the EDTEE covered by the transnational sports goods companies. Nike and Adidas have tackled it fully and Under Armor got in 2014 to displace ADIDAS in the sports fashion in the USA.

Sports Public Policy: A Way to Promote and Legitimate the Sport-Health Relationship
The foundation and planning of the public sports policy will be clarified to demonstrate that it is a privileged way through which the sport-health relationship is deepened. To do so, we will present comparative tables of the normative-legal basis that sustains it and of the National Sports Plans, registering only the contents related to the sport-health relationship. Then make some comments (Tables 1,2). Article 43: 1. The right to health protection is recognized. 2. It is the responsibility of the public authorities to organize and protect public health through preventive measures and the necessary services and benefits. The law will establish the rights and duties of everyone in this regard. 3. The public authorities shall promote health education, physical education and sport. They will also facilitate the proper use of leisure / ART.148: The Autonomous Communities may assume powers in the following matters: ... 18.

Venezuela** Guiding Principles: 4. N.2: Sports, physical activity and physical education as means to improve the quality of life and health. The central idea of sports socialism of the 21st century is based on the link between physical activity and sports practice as a means to achieve a better quality of life. The improvement in the quality of life must become one of the most powerful arguments for the practice of sport, physical activity and physical education. National System of Sports, Physical Activity and Physical Education: Rules, instructions, procedures and technical instruments to develop physical and sporting activity considering the guidelines of the State Policy.
Name: General Lines of the National Plan of Sports, Physical Activity and Physical Education 2013-2025. DIRECTIONALITY Policy I. Massification of Physical Education, Physical Activity and Sport: The National Plan must guarantee the progressive incorporation of all citizens to the practice of physical education, physical and sports activities as part of their integral development for improve the quality of life ... Objective I.1. Raise awareness among citizens of the right and benefit of the practice of physical education, of physical and sporting activities as part of their integral development: ... Equally, transmitting to the whole population the values that sports practice manages to develop is, without doubt, one of the elements that will contribute to shaping a healthier society. The concept of public health that provides us with a better quality of life must be associated with the phenomenon of sport and physical activity ... Objective I.4. Consolidate physical education and sports at all educational levels for the formation and integral development of students and as a platform for the detection and recruitment of sports talents: ... It should be noted that the habits of physical activity and healthy lifestyles acquired during childhood and adolescence are more likely to be maintained throughout life. Therefore, the improvement of physical activity in young people is essential for the future health of all populations.
There are 11 projects in 2013. Project N.2: Medicine, Research and Sports Applied Sciences: Consolidate the national network of medicine, research and sports applied sciences, to increase the number of national athletes who benefit from the application of scientific and technological advances in medicine and other related disciplines, as well as to favor training and research processes in priority areas and topics for the development of the National Sports, Physical Activity and Physical Education Activity System. The National System of Sport, Physical Activity and Physical Education is integrated into 6 subsystems. In the two mentioned below their objectives are: 1) Communal: Promote the massive and systematic practice of physical activities for health, recreation and sports by strengthening the sports and recreation committees of the communal councils and other organizations of the People's Power , constituted for that purpose, as basic units of the subsystem to improve the quality of life of the population ... 2) Labor: Incorporate the entire working population ... to the continuous practice of sports, physical activities and physical education, as a combat mechanism of diseases associated with sedentary lifestyle, work absenteeism, work accidents and to counteract the harmful alternatives of leisure: consumerism, smoking, alcoholism, drug addiction, gambling and virtualization of human relationships through technological means, promoting the rescue of social relations direct.
In the case of Spain: a) Sport together with health education (which appears as a synonym for health) and physical education, as well as leisure, can be found in section 3 of Article 143 of the Spanish Constitution, preceded by the health located in Sections 1 and 2. In Article 148, tourism, sports, health and hygiene and "adequate use of leisure" are established as competences of the Autonomous Communities.

b) Regarding the Plan:
i.
Health and sports are two of its three preliminary concepts. The other is physical activity, defined from the perspective of health. ii.
One of the two central aspects of his End is health.
iii. One of its four Fundamental Principles is the explicit recognition of the sport-health imbrications.
iv. Of four General Objectives, two refer to the sporthealth relationship: One details the improvements in health through the practice of sport and the other, recognizes the relationship as a scenario of social inclusion.
v. Of thirteen Programs, the sport-health relationship appears among the objectives of seven: In No. 2, the "healthy sports practice" and the prevention of health are located; N. 3, 6 and 8 reiterate the relationship, with particular emphasis on the need for their presence in schools, among the elderly and in the university, incorporating elements of the welfare industry such as tourism; in N. 13, 14 and 15, the objectives of raising awareness and informing about the impact of the relationship, the need to investigate it and to train specialized professionals, respectively, are proposed.
In the case of Venezuela: a) Article 111 of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, explicitly expresses and recognizes that sport is articulated with health.

b) Regarding the Plan:
i.
Defines among its four Guiding Principles, one that establishes the imbrication of sport and health, incorporating the term quality of life that -not defined ever-is associated with health. ii.
In Directionality, the definition of one of the two Policies establishes the relationship sport-quality of life (identified with health). Then, in two of the four objectives of this same Policy, it is reiterated that sports practice serves a healthier society and a better quality of life.

Journal of Physical Fitness, Medicine & Treatment in Sports
iii. Of the 11 projects in 2013, that of Medicine, Research and Sports Applied Sciences, is the support of the others that are part of the National Sports Activity, Physical Activity and Physical Education System, which is integrated by six subsystems, being present in two explicitly the relation sport-health: in one case the usefulness of sports practice in health and improvement of quality of life is recorded and in the other are detailed diseases that can be combated through sport.
As can be seen, the sport-health relationship as the foundation of public sports policy is legally established and recognized in both cases, while leisure and tourism-the core elements of the welfare industry-appear as complements to this relationship, having more prominence in Spain. In a coherent way, this vision is transferred and applied in Sports Plans, where Spain uses the concept of physical activity and Venezuela incorporates the concept of quality of life, in both cases identified or associated with health.
Undoubtedly, the public sports policy is a privileged and global way to promote and legitimize the sport-health relationship that allows them to feed themselves mutually and simultaneously in the processes of capital accumulation (EDTEE and the big health industry) and producers-reproducers of the capitalist ideology. Finally, once again we reiterate the need to rethink the sport with the aim of beginning to discuss its overcoming and to begin the creation of the theoretical-conceptual and concrete bases of an alternative, and in this respect we already advance some reflections; Obviously, this debate extends to the sport-health relationship. In any case, it is reason for deeper treatment in a later work.
