Sport, enhancement and human rights

Abstract

This paper examines enhancements within the field of sports based on human rights. There is a discussion about the most commonly used standards and references to reject artificial performance enhancement for athletes. This paper also discusses the references and standards of philosophical discussion on human enhancement as applied to sports. Finally, we support diversitybased humanism or inclusive transhumanism, i.e., an open-minded approach to enhancements although fulfilling individual rights.
