Living with Animals : Rights, Responsibilities, and Respect, Hardback Book

Living with Animals : Rights, Responsibilities, and Respect Hardback

Part of the Explorations in Contemporary Social-Political Philosophy series

Hardback

Description

Living with Animals brings a pragmatist ecofeminst perspective to discussions around animal rights, animal welfare, and animal ethics to move the conversation beyond simple use or non-use decisions.

Erin McKenna uses a case study approach with select species to question how humans should live and interact with various animal beings through specific instances of such relationships.

Addressing standard topics such as the use of animals for food, use for biomedical research, use in entertainment, use as companions, use as captive specimens in zoos, and use in hunting and ecotourism through a revolutionary pluralist and experimental approach, McKenna provides an uncommonly nuanced accounts for complex relationships and changing circumstances.

Rather than seek absolute moral stands regarding human relationships with other animal beings, and rather than trying to end such relationships altogether, the books urges us to make existing relations better.
