This
paper explores a number of arguments made within a number
of organisations about the use of genetic technology in
sport. It identifies 3 key organisations who have made attempts
at addressing this problem, particularly the World Anti-Doping
Agency (WADA, 2002), the US President’s Council on Bioethics
(2002) and the Australian Law Reforms Commission (ALRC,
2001). For each of these organisations, it is explained
how they reflect a different kind of appreciation for values
about genetics and sport. Specifically, WADA frames its
argument in what is medically ethical, the US President’s
Council considers a broad range of moral views concerning
sport, and the ALRC captures legal and ethical issues related
to the use of genetic information. Collectively, they provide
a useful breadth of ideas to inform the discussion concerning
the use of genetics and sport and can be helpful to begin
theorising an approach to this performance issue in elite
sport.
