  • Overcoming Sociological Naïveté in the Animal Rights Movement
    Theory in Action, Vol. 9, No. 1, January (© 2016) DOI:10.3798/tia.1937-0237.16003 Overcoming Sociological Naïveté in the Animal Rights Movement Joseph H. Michalski* The following paper draws upon Milner’s theory of social status to explain why nonhuman animals generally are not accorded equal status or the same level of compassion as human beings. The inexpansible nature of status means that one’s position in a status hierarchy depends upon how one fares relative to everyone else. Acquiring status requires the ability to excel in terms of collective expectations, or the ability to conform appropriately to extant group norms. Moreover, social associations with high-status individuals usually further enhance one’s relative status. Animals are disadvantaged along each of these aspects of status systems in most cases. Moreover, their relational and cultural distance from human beings reinforces their inferior position, reducing the likelihood of human beings defining them as “innocent victims” or otherwise according them full and equal rights. Yet animal rights activists who are aware of these sociological realities will be in a better position to advocate more effectively on behalf of at least selected nonhuman species.

Michalski, Ph.D., is Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Sociology, King’s University College at Western in Ontario, Canada.

  • West Hollywood First City in the Nation To
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Angie Adamson Campaigns Director (O) 310-271-6096 x27 (C) 310-849-0174 [email protected] FUR FREE WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA, reports LCA The First City in the Nation to Ban the Sale of Fur Apparel West Hollywood, CA, September 22, 2011 - A precedent setting victory for the animals occurred at 1:15am Tuesday, 9/20/11, when, after a seven hour meeting, WeHo’s city council voted 5-0 to pass a ban on the sale of fur apparel. Following in the footsteps of the humane minded council who voted for the animals in 1989 and passed Resolution 558 proclaiming WeHo a cruelty free zone, the council made this historic vote and put their foot down against the barbaric fur trade. This historic vote makes West Hollywood the first city in the nation with such a ban, proving that West Hollywood is truly a cruelty free zone. Last Chance for Animals, Shannon Keith, Ellen Lavinthal, Ed Buck, and fellow animal advocates came together to make this ban possible. Preceding the historic vote this group held weekly rallies and demonstrations, and made visits to retail establishments carrying fur. Important objectives were met including several stores in WeHo voluntarily removing fur from their stores, fur free candidate John D’Amico being elected to the West Hollywood City Council, and raising awareness around the fur issue. Thanks to these efforts John D’Amico was able to introduce the ordinance to ban the sale of fur apparel in West Hollywood. This ordinance makes West Hollywood the first city to go fur free in the U.S., setting a precedent for the rest of the world to put an end to the needless suffering of fur bearing animals solely for the purposes of vanity.

Social Science - Dissertations. 178. https://surface.syr.edu/socsci_etd/178 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Social Science - Dissertations by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT This intersectional and interdisciplinary social science qualitative dissertation in six chapters is grounded in critical research and theory for the purpose of engaged public service. This project is grounded in three formal disciplines: education, criminology, and peace and conflict studies. Within those three disciplines, this project interweaves newly emerging fields of study together, including critical animal studies, eco-ability, disability studies, environmental justice, transformative justice, green criminology, anarchist studies, and critical criminology, This dissertation adopts three qualitative methodologies; autoethnography, case study, and critical pedagogy. My project uses the animal advocacy movement as its case study. Using a critical pedagogy methodology, I explored why and how activists respond to the stigmatization of being labeled as or associated with terrorists, a process I refer to as ―terrorization.‖ Chapter One is an introduction to global ecological conditions and post-September 11, 2001 US political repressive conditions toward environmental and animal advocates.
