The purpose of this paper is to make clear the historical facts of doping matters under the DDR government and to point out the ethical problem to be found from this doping problem.
In this paper, I will investigate the bare facts under the DDR government. It could be said that some facts have not been clear up until now and we haven't had the enough ground for these facts under the DDR government.
It could be eventually said that the doping actions that were taken by the DDR government, the body politic, is regarded as those of ‘Property of the body by others’.
I will clarify the historical facts of this doping problem by focusing on the popular paper 『Spiegel』 and the survey 『MfS und Leistungssport』. In addition, I try to reconsider afresh what / why this problem is regarded as unacceptable from the ethical point of view.
The results of this consideration are as follows.
1. The contents of the actual conditions of doping problem under the DDR government are concretely developed.
2. The ethical issues that are the problem of doping as ‘Property of the body by others” subsists in these historical facts of doping matters under the DDR government.
3. Under the modern concept of Property, especially John Locke’s concept of Property of his / her own Person, it is concluded that the problem of ‘Property of his / her own Person by others’ is not admitted in the basis of personal nature.
