The athletes' voice and a feminist ethics of care : the russian doping scandal at the 2016 Olympic Games / Mikael Gonsalves, Angela J. Schneider
During the russian doping scandal at the 2016 Olympic Games, athletes’ voices were fighting to be heard. The response, specifically from athletes’, has been widely covered by sports critics and the media. Critical literature and media perspectives on this topic generated various types of reactions internationally, but in particular, at least two different kinds of discourses can be identified surrounding the debate on the scandal. This paper aims to differentiate and analyze these two main types of discourses: discourse for international collaboration and discourse for athletes’ care.
