Abstract

Carceral logics permeate our thinking about humans and nonhumans. We imagine that greater punishment will reduce crime and make society safer. We hope that more convictions and policing for animal crimes will keep animals safe and elevate their social status. The dominant approach to human-animal relations is governed by an unjust imbalance of power that subordinates or ignores the interest nonhumans have in freedom. In this volume Lori Gruen and Justin Marceau invite experts to provide insights into the complicated intersection of issues that arise in thinking about animal law, violence, mass incarceration, and social change. Advocates for enhancing the legal status of animals could learn a great deal from the history and successes (and failures) of other social movements. Likewise, social change lawyers, as well as animal advocates, might learn lessons from each other about the interconnections of oppression as they work to achieve liberation for all. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Abstract

"This handbook presents a much-needed and comprehensive exploration of the rapidly growing fields of animal welfare and law. In recent years there has been increasing attention paid to our complex, multifaceted relationships with other animals, and in particular, the depth and breadth of various societal uses of animals. This has led to a reconsideration of their moral and social status, which has sometimes challenged the interests of those who use animals. In such a contested domain, sound evidence and reasoning become particularly important. Through firm commitment to such principles, this book explores the biological foundations for the moral consideration of animals, and for evolving conceptualisations of animal welfare. It reviews in detail the welfare concerns associated with numerous forms of animal use. The inclusion of key recent developments such as climate change, pandemics and antimicrobial resistance, ensure this text is among the most current in its field. The ethical implications of the various uses of animals by society are considered, and chapters provide important recommendations for reforms of practice, law or policy. The status of animal law internationally, and in major world regions, is reviewed. Finally, the book considers human behavioural change, and strategies for improving stakeholder communication and education. The handbook is essential reading for students and scholars of animal welfare, animal law and animal ethics everywhere, and for policymakers and other professionals working in the animal welfare sector"--

Abstract

How can the current animal welfare law be changed to protect animals more effectively? This work assesses and evaluates the necessary changes to the legal situation. Furthermore, the work contains a proposal for a new animal protection law with specifications for animal husbandry, animal experiments, animal transports, a penal norm and the instrument of the nationwide valid association complaint for animal protection officers and recognized animal protection organizations. Long-standing demands, e.g. for effective fire protection regulations for animal stables, bans on certain forms of husbandry and a ban on the exhibition of wild animals in circuses, are also taken up and specifications permissible under European law are formulated. With contributions by Prof. Dr. Jens Bülte; Anna-Lena Dihlmann, LL.B.; Ri’in Dr. Barbara Felde; RAin Linda Gregori and RiAG a.D. Dr. Christoph Maisack and an introduction by Renate Künast. Wie kann das aktuell geltende Tierschutzrecht geändert werden, um Tiere effektiver schützen zu können? Mit diesem Werk werden notwendige Änderungen der Rechtslage begutachtet und bewertet. Weiter enthält das Werk einen Vorschlag für ein neues Tierschutzrecht mit Vorgaben zur Tierhaltung, zu Tierversuchen, zu Tiertransporten, einer Strafnorm und dem Instrument der bundesweit geltenden Verbandsklage für Tierschutzbeauftragte und anerkannte Tierschutzorganisationen. Lange bestehende Forderungen, z. B. nach effektiven Brandschutzvorschriften für Tierställe, Verbote bestimmter Haltungsformen und ein Verbot der Zurschaustellung von Wildtieren in Zirkussen werden ebenfalls aufgegriffen und europarechtlich zulässige Vorgaben formuliert.

Abstract

Understanding the relationships between humans and animals is essential to a full understanding of both our present and our shared past. Across the humanities and social sciences, researchers have embraced the ‘animal turn,’ a multispecies approach to scholarship, with historians at the forefront of new research in human-animal studies that blends traditional research methods with interdisciplinary theoretical frameworks that decenter humans in historical narratives. These exciting approaches come with core methodological challenges for scholars seeking to better understand the past from non-anthropocentric perspectives.Whether in a large public archive, a small private collection, or the oral histories of living memories, stories of animals are mediated by the humans who have inscribed the records and organized archival collections. In oral histories, the place of animals in the past are further refracted by the frailty of human memory and recollection. Only traces remain for researchers to read and interpret.Bringing together seventeen original essays by a leading group of international scholars, Traces of the Animal Past showcases the innovative methods historians use to unearth and explain how animals fit into our collective histories. Situating the historian within the narrative, bringing transparency to methodological processes, and reflecting on the processes and procedures of current research, this book presents new approaches and new directions for a maturing field of historical inquiry.
