Multidisciplinarno poimanje tjelesnog vježbanja
Multidisciplinary Concept of Physical Education and Practice

Summary/Abstract: The article presents a multidisciplinary perspective on the problem of diminishing physical activity and its impact on the health in the overall population. We discuss possible reasons for apparent marginalization of the physical education and practice in the educational system and popular culture rituals, and present an emergent holistic approach as a way how to deal with this problem. This approach is not reduced to a mere prescription for greater inclusion of physical exercise in the educational programs or an apologetic stance for proper functioning of the bodily systems for optimal health, but argues for a reconceptualization and evaluation of the role of embodied cognition in the context of various psychological, emotional, cognitive and sociological components of human being. We argue that the model of emergent holism presents a well-defined scientific frame for the conceptualization of these issues.
