Beschreibung:
The history of performance-enhancing drug use in sports dates back to at least the ancient Olympic Games. In the recent past, there have been efforts to manufacture the notion of "doping" and to campaign against it. The movement has been adopted by the International Olympic Committee in an effort to present the image of an Olympic Games that personifies the 'spirit of sport.' In "Out of the Olympic Closet," Ken Kirkwood puts forward the idea that the moral imperative lies with allowing athletes to choose performance-enhancing drug use in an effort to minimize the harm to the athletes.
