Abstract
SUMMARY
Ethics is the science of moral. Under the concept of
moral the most acceptable definition is that is a system
of norms and rules of human behaviour. In the relationship
with sport the nearest concept is »moral’s authonomy
» which include the moral aspects of tolerancy,
humanity and respect. Intention to make a link between
termins as ethics and sports are, the most revolve in
one’s mind are negative (non-ethics) feedback such as
dopping, bribes, corruptions and profits motivated with
just one goal – triumph and victory.
Contemporary sport is permanent under ethics enquiring
temptation because of utilitaristic admission. Sport
present risk, like economy interlacing in the name of
triumph no metter of the concequences and in the same
time resour of politics propaganda on international
level. The provement of that lies in lots of examples
such as hostility of world’s championships, olimpic and
paraolimpic games. Consider that the athletes use to be
fighters for reputation of their countries- nations and
they musn’t be sich and unhealthy no metter of physicians
advices.
Informed consent, initiated to the injured athlete in the
name of choosing the best way of treatmens, balance
between quality (rational medical treatment) and profit
(fastest return into «arena»).
