| Popis | This paper traces some topics which to may become urgent in the few next years for all those who are engaged in kinanthropology within the Euro-American cultural zone. We selected three topics which should be seriously considered as influential processes in the field of sportification, technologization and physical inactivity. Within the theoretical frame of this paper we describe a core of these three phenomena and their ambivalent effects on modern human society. We argue a conceptual schema in which these processes are interconnected in some way and in which they influence each other in quite a multiple pattern. Some aspects of these processes can be understood as problems to be solved, despite their positive and negative effects in the social field. In our opinion, some conventional methods of solving the negative effects of these processes often fail because they are based on a unilateral approach coming from a specific branch of study. We propose a more multiple approach, established on the specific interconnection of the philosophical, sociological and psychological perspectives. In the synergy of these perspectives we can find some new possibilities for a deeper understanding of the causes and consequences of sportification, technologization and physical inaktivity in the kinanthropological frame. In this way, we can transform these processes (including some problems which they bring) into urgent challenges for social studies in kinanthropology. The necessity to reconstruct a traditional portfolio of the most important kinanthropological issues comes from the rapid development of our society at the end of the 2010s. Reimagining this portfolio also supports the role of social studies in sport, which has been somewhat suppressed recently in scientific research, because of the rapid development of the precise outputs provided by sciences, sport medicine and economic studies in kinanthropology. processes in the field of sportification, technologization and physical inactivity.
