  • To put it another way,the ideas animating the Olympics are relevant to the nation's goal to build a harmonious society.

    As most people know,the modern Olympic movement is a product of Western industrialization.

    On the one hand,the Olympic spirit affirms the positive fruits of industrialization,as is evident in the Olympics' motto "Citius,Altius,Fortius" (faster,higher,stronger),epitomizing the principle of competition in modern industry.

    On the other hand,the Olympic spirit is critical of the negative aspects of industrialization.

    There is little doubt that Western industrialization,while tearing down national barriers to the world market,has also brought about unrestricted competition.The quest for profit by hook or by crook has poisoned the social atmosphere.
