Mapping the Holistic Journey of Former Vegans (eBook, PDF)

The Polyphony within Veganism

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores Veganism through the holistic journeys and lived experiences of former vegans, with a particular focus on the impact this has on their Selfhood and identity. It delves into the complexities underpinning definitions of Veganism and vegan identities.

Based on original qualitative research charting the experiences of ten former vegans, the text offers a theoretical lens for understanding evolving self-perception, identity, and experience, exploring what leads to initiating a transition in and out of Veganism and how former vegans reconcile with losing their vegan identity. Applying a Bakhtinian model of Selfhood, this book explores the tensions between 'Voices' representing values within social discourse, such as Veganism, and how individuals co-construct their identity and self-perception through said Voices. Chapters explore the Polyphony within Veganism and offer an insight into the embodied experience of former vegans. Each analysis chapter has been divided into three distinct Threshold-moments of beginning, middle, and end.

Mapping the Holistic Journey of Former Vegans: The Polyphony within Veganism is intended for scholars and postgraduate students interested in Veganism, Selfhood and identity, and behaviour change and anyone looking to understand the context of Veganism in practice.
