Doping is not only a medical-legal issue. The increase in doping results from increasing international competition, the market economy and the increasing national significance of sport. The ethical problems of the researchers are pointed out. The gradually stricter measures taken by the Swedish Sport Federation against doping are described. The debate on doping in the daily papers after the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 1984 was characterized by moral indignation and an increasingly cynical attitude to top sport. These reactions are interpreted in the light of an historical analysis of the development of sport and its ideological manifestation in Swedish society
