이 글은 체육회의 100년 변천을 역사적 제도주의 관점의 포괄적 분석에 목적을 둔다. 대한체육회가 발간한 사료를 기반으로 변천을 창립기 발전기, 재편기로 구분하고 시기별 주요 제도 변화를 조직, 기능, 규범 등에 초점을 두고 분류 해석했다. 연구 결과로 체육회의 변화 경로는 대규모 단절보다 기존 제도의 핵심 틀을 유지한 채 새로운 요소를 덧붙이는 제도적 중첩이 두드러졌다. 창립기는 민족체육에 기반을 두고 전국망과 지방조직 추가, 발전기는 국제 표준, 법제 안정, 대형 국제이벤트 운영 능력 등 기능적 중첩이 이루어졌다. 재편기는 전문･생활체육 이원화 구조가 통합되고 윤리･인권･투명성･성평등 등 규범성이 추가되었다. 중첩은 대한체육회의 안정성과 유연성 확보를 이루었으나 아직 남아있는 문제를 해결하기는 어렵다. 이 연구는 제도적 중첩이 조직이나 정책의 장기적 존속과 환경 적응의 유력한 경로라는 점을 밝혔다. 향후 체육회 발전에 중첩 영역이나 기능 관리･조정, 인권 등 규범 요소의 실질적 작동, 중앙–지방 균형 강화가 필요하다. 이는 스포츠 행정뿐 아니라 유사한 성격의 공공･민간 조직의 제도 설계와 운영에 적용할 수 있다.
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the 100-year evolution of the Korea Sports Council from the perspective of historical institutionalism, with a particular focus on institutional layering. Unlike previous research that mainly described historical events or policy changes, this study seeks to identify the mechanisms of change through a theoretical framework. The analysis is based on the full series of archival materials published in 100 Years of Korean Sports (E-Book) by the Korea Sports Council, along with relevant primary sources and official documents. The Council’s historical trajectory is divided into three periods: the Founding period (before 1945), the Development period (1945–1990s), and the Reorganization period (2000s–2020s). Major institutional changes in each period are classified and interpreted according to organizational, functional, and normative layers. The findings show that the Council’s path of change was dominated not by large-scale ruptures but by incremental adaptation through institutional layering, in which new elements were repeatedly added while maintaining the core framework of the existing system. In the Founding period, the national sports foundation was strengthened with the addition of a nationwide network and local branches. The Development period introduced functional layers such as the adoption of international standards, legal stabilization, and the capacity to host major international events. In the Reorganization period, the dual structure of elite and recreational sports was integrated, and normative layers—ethics, human rights, transparency, and gender equality—were reinforced. While such layering enhanced the Council’s stability and adaptability, it has not fully addressed persistent structural issues. This study confirms that institutional layering can serve as an effective pathway for the long-term survival and environmental adaptation of organizations and policies. For the future development of the Korea Sports Council, it is necessary to strengthen the management and coordination of layered areas and functions, ensure the effective implementation of normative elements such as human rights, and promote a balanced relationship between central and local governance. These implications are applicable not only to sports administration but also to the institutional design and operation of public and private organizations with similar characteristics.
