Using literature,expert interviews and other research methods,based on the perspective of policy network theory,this paper studied the practical difficulties and solutions of the implementation of China's retired athletes'resettlement policy.It is found that the policy network for the placement of retired athletes in China mainly includes the policy community led by the central government,the intergovernmental network centered on local governments and their competent departments,the professional network centered on experts,scholars,scientific research institutions and industry organizations,the producer network composed of resource providers and the topic network with complex and loose members,the interactive game between various networks affects the implementation effect of the employment and resettlement policy for retired athletes.The resettlement policy of retired athletes in China faces the following difficulties:the poor connection between the policy community and the intergovernmental community leads to the inefficient implementation of the policy;The lack of inter departmental coordination and cooperation mechanism of intergovernmental network increases the complexity of policy implementation;The superposition of contradictions between intergovernmental network and producer network leads to the attenuation of policy implementation effect;The lack of benign interaction mechanism between policy community and professional network and issue network makes policy implementation difficult.Therefore,it is necessary to clarify the division of rights and responsibilities between the policy community and the intergovernmental network,and strengthen the construction of the supervision and incentive mechanism of the Intergovernmental network;Guided by the concept of cooperative governance,build a linkage and coordination mechanism between intergovernmental networks and departments;Comprehensively use various policy tools to improve the efficiency of resource allocation between intergovernmental network and producer network;Build a benign interaction mechanism and give full play to the positive integration role of intergovernmental network,professional network and issue network.
