Sports like American football, cricket and dance sports have, in recent years, been in the news for doping activities. The scale of the incidents may differ in each of these sports, but they present interesting questions about the legitimacy of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Code. Doping in Non-Olympic Sports: Challenging the legitimacy of WADA? argues against the International Olympic Committee (IOC)-run regime where WADA Code compliance is used as the only parameter to define an activity as a sport. The book argues that the definition of modern sport is based on certain factors identified through sociological and historical research. These parameters are common across the board and do not distinguish between Olympic and Non-Olympic sports. However, the use of the word Olympic in the Non-Olympic sport terminology subjects such sports to IOC dictates. Consequently, the IOC exploits its monopoly over the word Olympics to insist on WADA Code compliances. The numerous instances of doping, as reported, goon to prove that WADA is turning a blind eye to these Non-Olympic sports. This book is the first to dissect the issue of doping within Non-Olympic sports and questions the very idea of WADA compliance as a condition precedent to defining sports going on to highlight the inbuilt inequity within the existing anti-doping system wherein a private regime is usurping the State's discretion. The new, cutting edge research book is key reading for academics and researchers in the fields of Coaching, Sport Pharmacology, Sport Medicine, Sports Law, and the related disciplines. 610 20 $a World Anti-Doping Agency. 610 27 $a World Anti-Doping Agency. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01606027 650 0 $a Doping in sports. 650 0 $a Doping in sports $x Law and legislation. 650 7 $a Doping in sports. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00896938 650 7 $a Doping in sports $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00896940 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781000460537 830 0 $a Routledge research in sport, culture and society. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021022026.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BF71FD16A5B811ECBC4A196C2DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
