Animals and Society: The Humanity of Animal Rights - Routledge Library Editions: Social Theory
Tester, Keith (Keith Tester passed away 14.1.19 as advised by wife & beneficiary Linda Tester SE936485 will, death cert and GOP received SF case 01612172 CH)
Animals and Society uses a variety of historical sources and a coherent social theory to tell the story of the invention of animal rights. It moves from incidents like the medieval execution of pigs to a discussion of the politics and strategies of modern rights organisations. The book also presents radical interpretations of nineteenth-century animal welfare laws, and the accounts of the Noble Savage. The insights generated by social science are always at the core of the discussion and the author daws on the work of Michel Foucault, Norbert Elias, Claude Levi-Strauss and Mary Douglas. This wide-ranging and accessible book provides a fascinating account of the relations between humans and animals. It raises far-reaching questions about the philosophy, history and politics of animal rights.
