We are pleased to provide you with this introductory booklet, which will explain to you the details of the IOC Injury & Illness Surveillance Study. As you may know, the IOC is increasingly emphasizing work on the protection of the athletes’ health and prevention of injuries and illnesses. During the 2004 Olympic Games, injuries in all team sport tournaments (football, handball, basketball, field hockey, baseball, softball, water polo and volleyball) were surveyed, and the IOC extended the project to all sports events during the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Further improvements were made in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, where also illnesses were recorded. The surveillance study provide the sports world with invaluable data that help us identify injury and illness risk factors and mechanisms, that, in turn, is used to develop and implement prevention measures and thus create safer sports for the athletes’ benefit. You, as the team physicians and physiotherapists, are crucial to the success of the project, and we kindly ask you to report all injuries and illnesses of your athletes on a daily basis on the provided report forms and return them to the IOC research team.

  • Fastest, Highest, Strongest: a Critique of High-Performance Sport Is a Truly Radical Text
    Fastest, Highest, Strongest Fastest, Highest, Strongest presents a comprehensive challenge to the dominant orthodoxy concerning the use of performance-enhancing drugs in sport. Examining the political and economic transformation of the Olympic Movement during the twentieth century, the authors argue that the realities of modern sport require a serious reassessment of current policies, in particular the ban on the use of certain substances and practices. The book includes detailed discussion of: ● The historical importance of World War II and the cold war in the develop- ment of a high-performance culture in sport. ● The changing Olympic project: from amateurism to a fully professionalized approach. ● The changing meaning of “sport.” ● The role of sport science, technology and drugs in pursuing ever-better performance. ● The major ethical and philosophical arguments used to support the ban on performance-enhancing substances in sport. Fastest, Highest, Strongest is a profound critical examination of modern sport, of interest both to students and scholars in the field of sport studies, as well as soci- ologists, political scientists, policymakers, sports administrators, and athletes themselves. Rob Beamish is Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Sociology at Queen’s University, Canada. Ian Ritchie is Associate Professor in the Department of Physical Education and Kinesiology at Brock University, Canada. Routledge critical studies in sport Series editors: Jennifer Hargreaves and Ian McDonald University of Brighton The Routledge Critical Studies in Sport series aims to lead the way in developing the multi-disciplinary field of sport studies by producing books that are interrog- ative, interventionist and innovative. By providing theoretically sophisticated and empirically grounded texts, the series will make sense of the changes and challenges facing sport globally.

  • The International Olympic Committee, Sex Testing and the Maintenance of Hetero-Femininity in Sport
    Policing Womanhood: The International Olympic Committee, Sex Testing and the Maintenance of Hetero-Femininity in Sport DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lindsay Parks Pieper Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Sarah K. Fields, Advisor Brian Turner Judy Tzu-Chun Wu Copyrighted by Lindsay Parks Pieper 2013 Abstract This project assesses the significance of Olympic sex testing/gender verification. From 1968 to 1998, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) required sex/gender checks on all female participants, consequently defining and controlling womanhood. In the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, the IOC Medical Commission instituted the first compulsory test of the modern Olympic Movement. The procedure intended to guarantee the authenticity of Olympic competitors and unmask male masqueraders, as well as to scientifically confirm the separation of men and women in sport. Over the next three decades, the IOC authorized a policy of sex/gender conformity, which consequently outlined a specific category of woman for sport. Thus Olympic womanhood—dependent on a belief in natural, dichotomous sex/gender difference—required female athletes to conform to conventional notions of white hetero-femininity. Through these regulations, the IOC, a powerful and influential authority, has continuously reaffirmed a binary notion of sex, privileged white gender norms, re-inscribed a dichotomous paradigm of sexuality and hampered female athleticism. Although protests from the medical community and the Athletes Commission eventually coerced the IOC to abandon compulsory verification in 1999, officials failed to relinquish complete control of Olympic womanhood.

  • Doping and Public Health
    Doping and Public Health Doping – the use of performance- enhancing substances and methods – has long been a high-profile issue in sport but in recent years it has also become an issue in wider society. This important new book examines doping as a public health issue, drawing on a multi- disciplinary set of perspectives to explore the preval- ence, significance and consequences of doping in wider society. It introduces the epidemiology of doping, examines the historical context, and explores the social, behavioral, legal, ethical and political aspects of doping. The book also discusses possible interventions for addressing the problem on organizational and societal levels. Doping and Public Health incorporates the latest research to provide a com- prehensive guide to the key aspects of doping as a social phenomenon. Divided into six parts, this collection of studies offers detailed insight into: • ideals of health and fitness in today’s society • reasons behind the use of doping • medical and social consequences of doping • the importance of a doping-free society • challenges to the detection and prevention of doping • the global anti-doping movement. This book is a valuable resource for sport students, instructors and sport profes- sionals, and will also be of interest to educators and policy- makers working in the areas of health, criminology, sociology and law. Nader Ahmadi has a PhD in sociology and is Associate Professor and Vice Pre- sident of the University of Gävle, Sweden. His research has mainly focused on areas such as welfare and social policy, international social work, identity and youth problems, coping strategies among cancer patients, socio-cultural percep- tions of the self and gender roles, etc.
