    linzey - xx-4-index r2:Roces - 01.qxd 23/06/2009 12:33 Page 1 INTRODUCTION Does Animal Abuse Really Benefit Us? andrew linzey It is quite clear that in abusing animals we abuse our relationship with animals, and that we abuse ourselves. We become less human to the extent that we treat any living beings as things. R. D. LAING I Philosophers and thinkers have long accepted that there is a connection between the abuse of animals and the abuse of weaker human beings. A roster of illustrious names can be garnered in this regard, including Pythagoras, St Thomas Aquinas, John Locke, Alexander Pope, Arthur Schopenhauer, and Jeremy Bentham, as well as modern ones like Albert Schweitzer and Mohandas K. Gandhi. Immanuel Kant, regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of Europe and the late Enlightenment, was typical in that regard. In his lectures on ethics, given between 1775 and 1780, he expostulated: ‘If he is not to stifle his human feelings, he must practice kindness towards animals, for he who is cruel to animals becomes hard in his dealings with men’.1 Although Kant did not believe that we had direct duties to animals, he clearly held that human interests were sufficient in seeking to limit cruel behaviour to animals. Historically, this view manifested itself in the passing of a range of animal protection measures in the nineteenth century. Cruel behaviour to animals, it was thought, needed to be legally curbed in order to prevent cruelty to human subjects. It found its classic expression in the preamble to Lord Erskine’s Cruelty to Animals Bill in 1809: ‘The abuse of that [human] dominion by cruel and oppressive treatment of such animals, is not only highly unjust and immoral, but most pernicious in its example, having an evident tendency to harden the heart against the natural feelings of humanity’.2 Notice how cruelty is deemed not only unjust but also injurious to ourselves.

    CRITICAL PERSPECTIVES ON VEGANISM Edited by Jodey Castricano and Rasmus R. Simonsen The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series Series Editors Andrew Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford , United Kingdom Priscilla Cohn Villanova , Pennsylvania, USA Aim of the series In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. Th is series will explore the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations. Specifi cally, the Series will: • provide a range of key introductory and advanced texts that map out ethical positions on animals • publish pioneering work written by new, as well as accomplished, scholars; • produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in character or have multidisciplinary relevance.

  • Artículo G. Vicente. Igualdad Animal
    ALGUNAS REFLEXIONES SOBRE LA IGUALDAD ANIMAL. FUNDAMENTOS MORALES E IMPLICACIONES JURÍDICAS I. Presuntas bases morales para la discriminación animal En estos primeros años del siglo XXI toda una serie de factores de muy diversa índole se han ido interrelacionando entre sí contribuyendo a conformar el nuevo rostro que presentan las modernas sociedad occidentales. Uno de los más singulares es, sin duda, su carácter eminentemente urbano. Y precisamente desde las ciudades un gran número de personas (entre los que posiblemente se encontrarán muchos de los lectores de este texto) se declaran abiertamente amantes de los animales. En efecto su contacto con ellos es diario: a la hora de las comidas, troceados y presentados de la forma más engañosa posible para favorecer el cotidiano y alegre festín, del que los animales son sin embargo tristes, y forzosos, invitados. Este modo de contacto con los animales no humanos como mero alimento es muy posiblemente el más antiguo y generalizado a lo largo de la historia. Se basa en la popular, y moralmente más que discutible, creencia popular de que la existencia de los animales tiene su razón de ser en la satisfacción de la conveniencia y placer humanos. Se trata de una mera cosificación de los animales, cuyo único objetivo existencial consiste al parecer en estar al servicio y capricho del ser humano. Vista la endeblez moral de este primer argumento surge la pregunta de si existen otras bases morales para fundamentar esta actitud despreciativa con todos aquellos animales que no son humanos. En segundo lugar pueden subrayarse algunas vagas consideraciones acerca de que algunos animales se comen unos a otros, lo cual no constituye ninguna pauta de moralidad, pues esos animales si no mataran para comer no podrían sobrevivir, mientras que para el hombre matar no es una necesidad, ya que tiene otras alternativas.

  • The Marine Mammal Captivity Issue: Time for a Paradigm Shift
    In: The Palgrave Macmillan Series on Animal Ethics Edited by Andrew Linzey and Priscilla Cohn (in press) The Marine Mammal Captivity Issue: Time For a Paradigm Shift Lori Marino Dolphin and whale (cetacean) captivity is one of the most contentious cultural issues of modern times. Neither the “anti-“ or “pro-“ captivity groups can be expected to concede to the other but neither is it entirely impossible to conceive of ways to bring the two together over shared interests and objectives. So, the issue is whether there is a way to move forward into the future by combining forces for the benefit of everyone involved. In order to consider that possibility, three questions must be addressed. First, who are cetaceans? Second, do cetaceans flourish (or, thrive) in captivity? Third, what should we do about what we know about the answers to the first two questions? Scientific research done both in captivity and in the field has revealed much about who dolphins and whales are. There is no doubt that captive research has contributed substantially to our understanding of them. But that same empirical research leads to the inescapable conclusion that cetacean nature is fundamentally incompatible with captivity. Cetaceans cannot flourish in captivity. To flourish is to thrive and not simply exist or even live or reproduce. As Nussbaum 1 (2011) articulates: “Each creature has a characteristic set of capabilities, or capacities for functioning, distinctive of that species, and that those rudimentary capacities need support from the material and social environment if the animal is to flourish in it characteristic way.” (p.237).

They’re playing defense with verve and creativity—blocking ugly and destructive projects that wreck landscapes and lives. And defense is crucial. As generations of sports coaches have delighted in pointing out, defense wins games. But we’re very far behind in the global warming game, so we need some offense too. And here’s what offense looks like: going directly after the fossil fuel industry and holding it accountable for the rapid warming of the planet. It’s the richest and most arrogant industry the world has ever seen. Call it Powersandprincipalities, Inc. And where once it served a real social need—energy— it now stands squarely in the way of getting that energy from safe, renewable sources. Its business plan—sell more coal, gas and oil—is at odds with what every climate scientist now says is needed for planetary survival. If that sounds shocking, sorry: a lifetime of Exxon ads haven’t prepared us for the reality that Exxon is a first-class villain, any more than a lifetime of looking at the Marlboro Man prepared us to understand lung cancer.

  • Advancing Animal Rights (Theory)
    J O U R N A L O F A N I M A L L A W VOL. III 2007 Joan Dunayer’s “Advancing Animal Rights” is a response to a Journal of Animal Law piece on her book Speciesism: Jeff Perz’s “Anti-Speciesism” (Volume 2, 2006). “Advancing Animal Rights” will be published in full or in part in Volume 3 of the Journal of Animal Law. Given the contents of “Anti-Speciesism,” the Journal has deemed it appropriate to release “Advancing Animal Rights” before Volume 3 appears in 2007. —Professor David Favre, Chair, Advisory Committee, Journal of Animal Law In “Advancing Animal Rights,” Joan Dunayer refutes Jeff Perz’s charges that her book Speciesism appropriates and misrepresents the work of Gary Francione. She also critiques aspects of Francione’s animal rights theory and discusses ways in which Speciesism represents progress beyond that theory. Dunayer demonstrates that Francione’s guidelines for abolitionist action are needlessly complex and actually allow for “welfarism”; she proposes a different approach. In addition, Dunayer redefines speciesism, expanding and refining the concept by distinguishing between different types of speciesism. Finally, she outlines the legal rights that all nonhuman beings should possess. ADVANCING ANIMAL RIGHTS: A RESPONSE TO “ANTI- SPECIESISM,” CRITIQUE OF GARY FRANCIONE’S WORK, AND DISCUSSION OF SPECIESISM * JOAN DUNAYER I. INTRODUCTION Defending one’s self against unjust attack is, at best, an unpleasant task. I would much rather focus on defending nonhuman animals against injustice. Current circumstances, however, require that I write partly in my own defense. Volume 2 of the Journal of Animal Law contains a piece, “Anti-Speciesism,”1 that maligns my animal rights book Speciesism.2 I became aware of this piece, by Jeff Perz, only after its publication.

II 2006 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION MYTHIC NON-VIOLENCE …………………………………………………………………. 1 Taimie L. Bryant ARTICLES THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT ……………………………………………………………... 13 Henry Cohen The Animal Welfare Act is a federal statute that directs the Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture to "promulgate standards to govern the humane handling, care, treatment, and transportation of animals by dealers, research facilities, and exhibitors." This article summarizes the original 1966 act, all its amendments, and bills to amend it that are pending in the 109th Congress. WHO LET THE DANGEROUS DOGS OUT?……………………………….............................. 27 Claudia E. Haupt The article examines the legislative measures taken at the state and federal level in Germany to address the issue of dangerous dogs and the related decision of the Federal Constitutional Court which upheld an import ban on dangerous dogs while striking down a breeding ban and parts of a newly introduced section to the Criminal Code. ANTI-SPECIESISM………………………………………………………………………….. 49 Jeff Perz Joan Dunayer's Speciesism appropriates and misrepresents the animal rights theory of Gary L. Francione. Dunayer's objections to Francione's highly qualified suggestion that a prohibition against confining hens to battery cages could be consistent with animal rights theory are specious. If the exploitation of non- human animals is to be completely abolished, those who bring about this result will have necessary been informed by a consistent, well-supported theoretical framework.
