Abstract

Disqualified athletes and their nationalistic supporters tend to be highly critical of the regime of sanctions for violations of the international law of sports, and specifically of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The author maintains that CAS promotes public policy and favours fair competition, not the opposite, and that those who condemn CAS tend to be unacquainted with the facts and irresponsible in failing to explain how they would propose to remedy the chaos which would ensue if CAS were suddenly to disappear.
