- 2. Questions about bodily integrity and freedoms lead naturally into discussions about human rights. This particular articulation of social responsibility is enshrined within the Olympic Charter, but the politicization of rights as a form of global governance limits their ability to flourish as an explicit articulation of Olympism. This lecture explores a range of questions associated with human rights, asking whether the philosophy of Olympism extends to the political project of human rights promotion.

- 44. When the Olympics arrives in your country consider the following: If Olympism consists of a valued ideology, then is it reasonable that a nation commits to it for only 5 years of Games time preparation? Which people who are organizing your Games will continue their commitment to the Olympic ideals - as a humanitarian movement - in the years that follow your Games? Our job is to hold these people to account, for longer than they expected!
