Birth assumption that biotech today's conditions alter traditional notions of natural, cultural and artificial, and that these conditions are openings for emerging forms of social regulation, exemplified in this study in athletes and high performance sports. In conducting these discussions analyze the ways in which the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA-AMA) prepares and performs management actions of the sporting vitality, primarily through the excerpts and statements present in the Play True magazine. It is considered that contemporary biotechnological able to change the human make up new forms of socialization, marked by an increase in vital capacity by changing the traditional understanding of body and nature, requiring new forms of government bodies.
