“…Sport is defined as all forms of physical activity which, through casual or organized participation, aim at expressing or improving physical fitness and mental wellbeing, forming social relationships or obtaining results in competition at all levels (Marmot and Allen 2014). To be active in sport requires those that are engaged to be up to date on the rules and regulations governing the sport and taking responsibility for their performance (Cahn and Markie 2008).…”

The aim of this paper is to examine the opportunities and problems presented by the increasing availability of technologies which is capable of enhancing sporting performance and identifying the risks in sports for creating educational and sports management practices to lead with justice, honesty, and beneficence. A questionnaire is developed to ascertain the social determinants and risks of health aspects of sports in a sample of professionals and amateurs. Descriptive and correlation analysis were used for data analysis. The study identifies health risks connected with the intensive loading of locomotors system, poor working conditions which cause working trauma and diseases as well as low level of health culture regarding the effects of performance-enhancing drugs including anabolic steroids, stimulants, human growth hormone, and supplements. There are arguments that the quality of sport education will be achieved by addressing the study of sports ethics coupled with a study of management and law.

“…Interventions addressing disease risk at the individual level remain important, but many of the key determinants of health and wellbeing are considered to be best addressed at a population level (Marmot andAllen, 2014, McKee et al, 2014). This concept is perhaps most clearly illustrated in the work of the World Health Organization's Commission on the Social Determinants of Health (Commission on Social Determinants of Health, 2008), and is described by various frameworks, several of which have been recently summarised in a report of the Canadian Council on Social Determinants of Health (Canadian Council on Social Determinants of Health, 2015).…”

The 'macro-structural' determinants of health, which include macroeconomic policy and social policy, significantly influence people's living and working conditions, behaviours, and health. Trade policy is one example of a macro-structural determinant, with increasingly well recognised health outcomes. The health effects of macro-structural determinants such as trade policy are mediated through the policy and governance mechanisms of economic, social, and political institutions. Thus, responding to these determinants will require actions that generate institutional and policy changeand a politically-informed research approach. Some recent empirical work in the public and global health community has taken a more politically-informed approach to trade and health, however there is scope for considerable conceptual and methodological development. We describe how a perspective informed by political science might inform new ways of investigating and addressing trade policy to improve health outcomes. A range of theories and methods from policy studies are relevant, but particularly important will be application of institutional and ideational lenses of policy analysis, to understand better policy processes and inform avenues for macrostructural change.

“…6 This has led to initiatives to narrow the gap and reduce health inequalities, which aim to reduce the difference currently experienced by people from differing social backgrounds in educational achievement and health status respectively. This article focuses on the inclusion of deprivation in performance measures, which has proved to be controversial.…”
