The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is having a major impact on
all aspects of life, both in South Africa and globally. The chief
technological developments associated with the 4IR offer much
promise for human development and improvements in quality of life.
Yet, as this book explores, these technologies are a double-edged
sword, bringing both benefits and drawbacks, particularly in
relation to the realisation and enjoyment of fundamental human
rights and freedoms. This book constitutes the first major
investigation of the real and potential human rights implications
of the 4IR in South Africa, following the work of the South African
Human Rights Commission in this area. Addressing issues such as
unemployment, poverty, development and local government in the 4IR;
bias, discrimination and the digital divide; internet rights and
responsibilities; privacy and cybersecurity; and predictive
policing, surveillance and digital justice, this book offers an
in-depth review of the current and emerging regulatory frameworks
relating to human rights and 4IR-related technologies in South
Africa. With contributions from social scientists, ethicists and
human rights experts, and a Foreword from the SAHRC CEO, Advocate
Tseliso Thipanyane, this book will be of wide interest to
policy-makers, academics and the public interested concerned with
the future of South African constitutionalism.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

1-800-555-0606 How lucky do you feel? So reads the business card
from LIMBUS, INC., a shadowy employment agency that operates at the
edge of the normal world. LIMBUS's employees are just as suspicious
and ephemeral as the motives of the company, if indeed it could be
called a company in the ordinary sense of the word. In this
shared-world anthology, five heavy hitters from the dark worlds of
horror, fantasy, and scifi pool their warped takes on the shadow
organization that offers employment of the most unusual kind to
those on the fringes of society. One thing's for sure - you'll
never think the same way again about the fine print on your next
employment application
