Download or read book The Ethics of Sport written by Arthur L. Caplan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport is often thought of as simply "games," but it can in fact be much more. Sport can be responsible for guiding social justice movements, igniting city-wide riots, uniting countries, permanently injuring youth, revolutionizing views about race, gender and class, and producing several of the most successful global industries. Reports of ethical crises in athletics are constant fodder for popular attention, whether performance enhancing drugs in baseball, corruption in college athletics, the epidemic of brain damage among NFL players, and others too numerous to mention. As a proxy for social concerns, we naturally think of sport in inherently moral terms. Yet we can hardly define the term "sport" or agree on acceptable levels of sporting risk, or determine clear roles and responsibilities for fans, players, coaches, owners, media and health care personnel. Bringing together 27 of the most essential recent articles from philosophy, history, sociology, medicine, and law, this collection explores intersections of sports and ethics and brings attention to the immense role of sports in shaping and reflecting social values.

Download or read book Ethics and Sports Rules written by and published by . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two influential theses about right action in sporting games : one holds that right action should be judged based on "rule formalism" ; the other states that it should be judged according to "the ethos of the game". This thesis rejects both accounts. The former fails to see that the ethos side of a game affects the "contents" of sports rules whereas the latter is too broad to apprehend an appropriate account of ethos. While "the spirit of rules" and "the spirit of games" are more sustainable, they need to be elaborated further. Consequently, I proposed "the Olympic Spirit" (i.e. Olympism) as a better account of good ethos for all sports, to be regarded as the organizing concept for sport education. Specific points have been addressed as follows: (i) since there are different conceptions of sport and because of the current trends of debate, I have limited my focus to those commonly accepted "sporting games" or "sports contests" in which rules are governed rather than sports in general; (ii) the central sports rules can be seen just as "constitutive rules" as they are constituted/reconstructed by rule makers and stated in a rule book of a particular sporting game. They are also "quasi-regulative rules", given the premise that all rules are regulative. They are expandable rules based on the relevant ethos of a particular sporting game. (iii) sports rules are in certain aspects different from moral norms and laws. However, sports rules and laws should work together coherently and they should be protected by morality; (iv) it is held that rule formalism cannot fully elaborate on ethical issues (negative or positive) such as cheating and sportsmanship in sport; (v) "the ethos of games" covers "the spirit of rules" and "the spirit of games". "The spirit of rules" can be included in "the spirit of games", which determines how each particular game has to be played in concrete circumstances. A better account of "the spirit of games" is Olympism, which could cover all.
