Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad istražuje fenomen dopinga u biciklizmu iz perspektive bioetike sporta, smještajući ga u širi kontekst filozofije i etike sporta. Rad analizira povijesni razvoj dopinga u biciklizmu, od ranih oblika stimulansa do modernih metoda poput EPO-a i krvnog dopinga. Posebna pozornost posvećena je poznatim slučajevima dopinga, s naglaskom na slučaj Lancea Armstronga kao paradigmatski primjer sistemskog dopinga. Rad razmatra etičke implikacije dopinga, uključujući pitanja fair playa, integriteta sporta i zdravlja sportaša. Također se bavi suvremenim naporima u borbi protiv dopinga, uključujući uvođenje biološke putovnice sportaša i pojačane kontrole. Zaključno, rad ističe potrebu za multidisciplinarnim pristupom u rješavanju problema dopinga, naglašavajući važnost kontinuiranog etičkog promišljanja o prirodi i svrsi sporta u kontekstu sve sofisticiranijih metoda poboljšanja performansi.

Abstract (english)

This thesis explores the phenomenon of doping in cycling from the perspective of sports bioethics, placing it within the broader context of the philosophy and ethics of sports. The paper analyzes the historical development of doping in cycling, from early forms of stimulants to sophisticated methods such as EPO and blood doping. Special attention is given to well-known doping cases, with a focus on the case of Lance Armstrong as a paradigmatic example of systematic doping. The thesis examines the ethical implications of doping, including issues of fair play, the integrity of sports, and athletes' health. It also addresses contemporary efforts in the fight against doping, including the introduction of the athlete's biological passport and enhanced controls. In conclusion, the paper emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach to addressing the problem of doping, highlighting the importance of continuous ethical reflection on the nature and purpose of sports in the context of increasingly sophisticated performance enhancement methods.
