Abstract
Sports violence is a critical issue that has hindered China's sports development. Dual logic is currently the mainstream rule of law and industrial autonomy, although it has not produced satisfactory results. In this paper, we used expert interviews, text analysis, and case analysis to investigate the flaws in the current governance process and found that the dual logic of sports violence governance has problems of varying degrees. The low degree of legislative specialization, the hazy limit of judicial intervention, and disparate law enforcement are examples of the rule of law. The clash of rights and interests between the association and the state, the association's ineffectual control over the junior leagues, and the limited scope of governance are all examples of industry autonomy. Based on the issues mentioned above, this paper proposes dual logic strengthening measures and the notion of integrated governance. In particular, we should improve the rule of law thinking and construct a legal system for sports violence in China from legislation, justice and law enforcement, and law-abidingness to compensate for the current lack of law in sports violence. Second, we define the scope of the association's “postdecoupling era” powers and obligations, resolve conflicts through state involvement based on the rule of law, and remove governance hurdles. Finally, we thoroughly investigate three aspects of integrated governance between the rule of law and industry autonomy: respecting industry autonomy and providing specific implementation space for industry norms, not excluding the rule of law's intervention, and establishing an industry autonomy supervision mechanism. The rule of law and industry autonomy permeate each other and realize integration.
Highlights
Sports violence, defined as extreme uncivilized behavior in a stadium, is one of the factors affecting the establishment of a harmonious stadium
Some recent studies [2,3,4,5] outline the current scenario and existing research in China, showing that China primarily uses the dual logic of the rule of law and industrial autonomy to cope with sports violence. e rule of law refers to the prevention of violence by applying the appropriate legal system, which applies to all criminals and emphasizes the law’s coercive force
Because football and basketball are the sports with the highest violence in China, the study focuses on the official autonomy texts of these two sports in terms of industry autonomy
Summary
Sports violence, defined as extreme uncivilized behavior in a stadium, is one of the factors affecting the establishment of a harmonious stadium It has evolved into a common problem faced by the global sports community. Some recent studies [2,3,4,5] outline the current scenario and existing research in China, showing that China primarily uses the dual logic of the rule of law and industrial autonomy to cope with sports violence. This paper uses sports violence governance as a starting point, analyses the difficulties or problems in existing dual-logic governance ideas using expert interviews and text analysis, and investigates improvement strategies and integration paths to improve the governance environment and effectiveness of sports violence in China
