Produktbeschreibung
This collection posits three questions. 1) What structures of violence and oppression are experienced and shared by human and nonhuman laborers working and dying in these necropolitical facilities? 2) If there is an intersection between class and species, which, in turn incorporates race, gender, abilities, and other categories of oppression, in which ways is the contemporary Animal Activist Nonprofit Sector (AANS) reifying or disrupting these hierarchies in its mission towards animal liberation? 3) If there are classist and racist biases in AANS, how can the AANS incorporate social class in dialogue with the liberation of nonhuman animals in order to build strategic alliances and coalitions between social movements and political subjects? This book not only envisions a world without these hierarchies but offer tangible steps the AANS can take to achieve liberation for human and nonhuman animals.
Rezensionen
This timely volume brings together a select group of committed activist-scholars to address what is perhaps the central question facing the pro-animal movement today: How should we think about violent discrimination against animals in conjunction with other forms of social injustice? The essays highlight not only the entangled forms of oppression at work in slaughterhouses and related institutions, but also uncover subtle forms of marginalization and exploitation at the very heart of the animal rights movement itself. The authors collectively aim to do nothing less than bring these interconnected forms of oppression to the surface and find means for eliminating them. The book deserves to be widely read and its suggestions for change widely implemented. Matthew Calarco Professor of Philosophy, California State University at Fullerton
