  • A Multi-Level Legitimacy Analysis of the World Anti-Doping Agency
    A Multi-Level Legitimacy Analysis of the World Anti-Doping Agency Read, Daniel Jonathan1, Skinner, James1; Lock, Daniel2 and Houlihan, Barrie1 1: Loughborough University, United Kingdom; 2: Bournemouth University, United Kingdom [email protected] Aim The effectiveness of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) as an international non- governmental organisation purposed to create and regulate anti-doping policy has been challenged by continued doping scandals in sport. Based on WADA’s response to the exposure of state sponsored doping in Russia, the purpose of this paper is to use multi-level legitimacy theory to understand reactive policy making in anti-doping. Theoretical Background and Literature Review Multi-level legitimacy theory (Bitektine & Haack, 2015) suggests that organisations conform to institutional pressures not necessarily because they agree with them, but because they can either profit from conforming or avoid reputational damage from challenging the dominant consensus. The result is that organisations true beliefs about the legitimacy of an institution may be suppressed until an event occurs which presents an opportunity to express views that challenge the status quo. Research suggests that anti-doping policy creation has been reactively prioritised after key events (Brissonneau & Ohl, 2010; Ritchie & Jackson, 2014). It is recognised that in the creation of WADA as an institution, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) lost their monopoly over anti-doping policy in sport due to government intervention after the Festina scandal (Hanstad, Smith & Waddington, 2008). It is argued that following the creation of WADA, organisations conformed to avoid reputational damage because failure to do so would signify to stakeholders that they were not concerned about doping in sport.

The persistently elevated level of layoffs are occurring as a spike in virus cases has forced six states to reverse their move to reopen businesses. Those six — Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Michigan and Texas — make up one-third of the U.S. economy. Fifteen other states have suspended their re-open- ings.
