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

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

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. Mit Beiträgen von Prof. Dr. Jens Bülte; Anna-Lena Dihlmann, LL.B.; Ri’in Dr. Barbara Felde; RAin Linda Gregori und RiAG a.D. Dr. Christoph Maisack und einer Einführung von Renate Künast.

Examines proverbs, popular aphorisms, myths, epic literature, wisdom literature, historiography, prophecy, and law codes. Applies methodology from current contemporary biblical and ancient Near Eastern scholarship and human-animal ethics, thereby raising new questions that lead to fresh insights. An Ethical View of Human Animal-Relations in the Ancient Near East is essential reading for scholars and graduate students of animal ethics, applied ethics and biblical studies.

Abstract

Das Werk befasst sich mit den Realitäten der strafrechtlichen Verfolgung von Tierschutzkriminalität in der Landwirtschaft. Die Autorinnen untersuchen anhand von Ermittlungsakten und Experteninterviews, wie das Tierschutzstrafrecht von Veterinärbehörden, Staatsanwaltschaften und Gerichten angewendet wird. Dabei wird deutlich, dass das geltende Tierschutzstrafrecht den Gegebenheiten moderner Tiernutzung nicht gerecht wird. Auf Basis der empirischen Ergebnisse entwickeln die Autorinnen Reformvorschläge auf materieller, prozessualer und institutioneller Ebene für eine angemessene und effektive Ahndung von Tierschutzkriminalität. Damit dient das Werk als Orientierung sowohl für den Gesetzgeber als auch für die Strafverfolgungsbehörden.

Abstract

This book examines how the developments in veterinary science, philosophy, economics and law converged during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to entrench farm animals along a commodification pathway. It covers two neglected areas of study; the importance of international veterinary conferences to domestic regimes and the influence of early global treaties that dealt with animal health on domestic quarantine measures. The author concludes by arguing that society needs to reconsider its understanding and the place of the welfare paradigm in animal production systems. As it presently stands, this paradigm can be used to justify almost any self-serving reason to abrogate ethical principles. The topic of this book will appeal to a wide readership; not only scholars, students and educators but also people involved in animal production, interested parties and experts in the animal welfare and animal rights sector, as well as policy-makers and regulators, who will find this work informative and thought-provoking. “Dr Sophie Riley’s book adds notably to the texts already available on animal welfare law. Starting with an historical analysis and describing the economic and commercial forces that are at work, Dr Riley demonstrates the dangers of unbridled commodification of farm animals. She invokes international law to analyze and evaluate the development of ‘quarantine treaties’. There must be re-engagement with ethical principles to bring the human mind into focus upon our empathy with animal species. Animals are not just things. Fortunately, increasing numbers of citizens are coming to realize this and to demand change. Dr Riley’s book explains why the change is happening and should accelerate." The Honourable Michael Kirby AC CMG, Sydney, Australia.
