Examining the legitimacy of the World Anti-Doping Agency, this book
offers a critical analysis of the anti-doping system and the social
and behavioural processes that shape policy, asking why the current
system is failing. Featuring in-depth, contemporary case studies
from around the world, including the whereabouts system; Lance
Armstrong; therapeutic use exemptions; the Essendon Bombers;
recreational drugs policy; and the Russian Olympic doping
programme, this is the first text to analyse empirically how the
legitimacy of WADA is constructed, contested and managed in the
field of anti-doping, and the consequent impact this has on
anti-doping. Based on the analysis of these case studies, the book
discusses how legitimacy processes have shaped the current
regulatory environment and offers structural and governance reforms
to improve anti-doping policy design and implementation. Adopting a
unique theoretical perspective, rooted in a socio-cognitive
perspective on organisational behaviour, this book is essential
reading for any researcher or student working on drugs and doping
in sport, sport management, the sociology of sport, governance,
transnational organisations or strategic management. It also offers
important insights for policymakers and administrators working in
sport or in government.
