Animal Rights Activism : A Moral-Sociological Perspective on Social Movements Hardback
by Kerstin Jacobsson, Jonas Lindblom
Part of the Protest and Social Movements series
Hardback
Description
We're in an era of ever increasing attention to animal rights, and activism around the issue is growing more widespread and prominent.
In this volume, Jonas Lindblom and Kerstin Jacobsson use the animal rights movement in Sweden to offer the first analysis of social movements through the lens of Emile Durkheim's sociology of morality.
By positing social movements as essentially a moral phenomenon-and morality itself as a social fact-the book complements more structural, cultural, or strategic action-based approaches, even as it also demonstrates the continuing value of classical sociological approaches to understanding contemporary society.
