Description
Leading philosophers Alice Crary and Lori GruenA offer a searing and desperately needed response to systemsA of thought and actionA that are failing animals and, ultimately, humans too.A In the wake of global pandemics, mass extinctions, habitat destruction, and catastrophic climate change, they issue a clarion call to address the intertwined problems weA face, arguing that weA must radically reimagineA our relationships with other animals. In stark contrast to traditional theories in animal ethics, which abstract from social mechanisms harmful to human beings,A Animal CrisisA makes the case that there can be no animal liberation without human emancipation. Borrowing from critical theories such as ecofeminism, Crary and Gruen present aA critical animal theoryA for understanding and combating the structural forces that enable the diminishment of so many to the advantage of a few. With seven case studiesA of complex human-animal relations, they make an urgent plea to dismantle theA â?ohuman supremacismâ?? that is devastating animal lives and hurtling us toward ecocide.
