Budoucnost olympismu?
Future of Olympism?

Summary/Abstract: The article briefly reminds the original ideas of Pierre de Coubertin; they helped him to create a certain conception of Olympism (the unity of sport, education and culture) which became the ground of Olympic Movement and organization of Olympic Games in the New Era. Olympism is nowadays extended in the whole world and being accepted as a basic philosophy of modern sport. It contributes significantly to enhance as constituting a full-value component of culture. The authors present some symptom of modern often very pragmatic sport and the reasons of the changes in it. They indicate the necessity to formulate - in a new situation - the values, purpose and aims of sport in preserving and enriching the principal Olympic values. Such substantiation appears as not only a theoretical requirement, it is in interest of sport itself.
