Pistorius in the 400m – 2007-2012
• In 2011, Pistorius became the first amputee to win an IAAF World Championships medal (4 x 400m relay)
• On 20 April 2012, Pistorius was named by Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world ...
• He's run inside the A-qualifying standard for the London Olympics (but ZA is strong in the 400m)
• His best times are 45.20 and 45.07 (cf. Steffenson)• In 2008, 45.96 made the Semis, 44.91 made the Final

• Interventions with the human body• Electrical and electro-mechanical interventions
(rather than biological, neurological, cognitive, ...)
• Not speculative, nor even futuristic, but contemporary
• Implications are current and near-future

Origins of the Term 'Cyborg'• 'Cybernetics' – Norbert Wiener – 1948
control of human-designed processes through feedback and response
• 'Cybernetic Organism' contracted to 'Cyborg'Clynes & Kline – 1960an enhanced human being to survive in extraterrestrial environments"the exogenously extended organizational complex functioning as an integrated homeostatic system unconsciously"A human with whom mechanical and/or electronic parts have been integrated ... with functionality extended beyond that of a normal human being, cf. 'Bionic Implants' from two TV series
• OED: "an artificial, esp. electromechanical, device that replaces part of the body; having ordinary human capabilities increased (as if) by the aid of such devices"

Rights• "Legal, social, or moral freedoms to act or refrain from
acting, or entitlements to be acted upon or not acted upon". Protection of a person's rights depends on:
• laws – systems of rules, enforced through institutions• the rule of law – above everyone and applies to everyone• enforcement of the relevant laws
• Categories:• A Liberty Right – a freedom or permission for the right-holder
• A Claim Right – entails responsibilities, duties, or obligations on other parties regarding the right-
holder
• Subject to adaptation, extension, reduction
