In the dissertation the concept and attributes of cheating in sports are analyzed from the context of various legal and criminological paradigms; also the legal liability for illegal possession of doping and match-fixing is studied and how such liability might be applied in Lithuania and abroad. Moreover, the concept of prevention of cheating in sports is unfolded and the levels of prevention are introduced. The prevalence of two most dangerous forms of cheating in sports is analyzed; accordingly the data of empirical research are compared with foreign empirical data and scientific literature. The factors that contribute to cheating in sports are explained on the basis of various criminological-sociological theories and concrete recommendations that curb such factors are offered. The last part of dissertation is devoted for criminalization problems – in the end of thesis it is offered to criminalize illegal possession of prohibited substances and methods and manipulations of sports results. |
