Breaking with past treatments that have framed the problem as one of "animal rights," the authors instead depict the exploitation and killing of other animals as a political question of the first order. The contributions highlight connections between our everyday treatment of animals and other forms of social power, mass violence, and domination, from capitalism and patriarchy to genocide, fascism, and ecocide.Contributors include well-known writers in the field as well as scholars in other areas writing on animals for the first time. Among other things, the authors apply Freud's theory of repression to our relationship to the animal, debunk the "Locavore" movement, expose the sexism of the animal defense movement, and point the way toward a new transformative politics that would encompass the human and animal alike.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 240mmItem Length: 164mmItem Width: 29mmItem Weight: 735gBook Series: Nature's MeaningRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
