The issue of doping has been the most widely discussed problem in sports ethics and is one of the most prominent issues across sports studies, the sports sciences and their constituent disciplines. This book adds uniquely to that catalogue of discourses by focusing on extant anti-doping policy and doping practices from a range of multi-disciplinary perspectives (specifically ethical, legal, and social scientific).
With contributions from a world-class team of scholars and legal practitioners from the UK, Europe and North America, the book explores key contemporary issues...

This book contains an international collection of essays by leading philosophers of sport on the ethics and philosophy of the Olympic Games. The essays consider a range of topics including critical reflections on nationalism and internationalism within the Olympic movement, sexism in Olympic marketing and sponsorship, the preservation and corruption of Olympism, the underlying ideology of the Olympic Games, the inequalities of perception in ability and disability as it informs our understanding of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, and comparisons between ancient and modern interpretations of...

The book addresses a series of key aspects of contemporary anti-doping policy. At the broader philosophical level, questions are asked about whether the scale of anti-doping activity and the intrusiveness of anti-doping policy in the lives of athletes is proportionate to the problem of doping. Aspects of existing anti-doping practice are also explored at the level of transnational organisations such as the EU and WADA and also at the level of the personal choices that need to be made by athletes and doctors in relation to doping control. Other contributions examine the complex issue of...

The ethics of sports medicine is an important emerging area within biomedical ethics. The professionalization of medical support services in sport and continuing debates around issues such as performance-enhancing technologies or the health and welfare of athletes mean that all practitioners in sport, as well as researchers with an interest in sports ethics, need to develop a clear understanding of the ethical aspects of the sport medicine nexus.
This timely collection of articles explores the conceptual and practical issues that shape and define ethics in sports medicine. Examining...

Advances in genetics and related biotechnologies are having a profound effect on sport and raising important ethical questions. Drawing on real case studies and grounded in rigorous science and an ethical critique of current practice and developments, this book explores the intersection of genetics, ethics and sport. It introduces key terms such as gene doping, gene therapy and eugenics, and explores issues such as the genetic basis of sport performance and the role of genetic testing in talent development. Distinguishing feasible scientific scenarios from science fiction, this is...
