Abstract

This introductory article in the special section of the journal Movimento explores global perspectives on sports ethics, highlighting that philosophical thought focuses on “open” questions and values conceptual precision and critical inquiry. The text provides an overview of the section's articles, covering topics such as the career and reflections of Scott Kretchmar, a pioneer in sports ethics; the importance of cultural values in kendo; the ethical implications of artificial intelligence; the central role of rules in sports; issues of sextortion and doping; and the role of physical education and values in school sports as fundamental rights in South Africa. It concludes by emphasizing the need for ethical reflection to foster a more respectful, inclusive, and integrity-driven sports environment.
