The Ghosts Around the Coasts: Anarchy and Equity in Transboundary River Basins, Mohsen Nagheeby, Northumbria University Volume 2 Issue 1 Student Journal of Professional Practice and Academic Research Editorial My Call was Answered! Rachel Dunn, Northumbria University In my last editorial, I called on more students, from any university, to send their work to the journal. The response to this has been amazing and the journal is expanding to all corners of the globe! This issue shows some of those submissions, and there have been more submitted. The work in this issue showcases the unique work which is being undertaken by students in various universities, and has been a pleasure to read and put together. The diversity doesn’t end there: we also have different methods of communicating research in this issue and I hope you enjoy the variety. There are two articles in this issue. Claudia Man-yiu Tam, from the University of Hong Kong, has written an excellent and engaging piece on the need for animal protection to be included in the school curricula in Hong Kong. It is a fascinating piece, exploring the effect this can have on children later in life, drawing on philosophy and ethics. As an animal law specialist, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and thank Claudia for introducing me to some new literature! Jade Potot-Warren, from Northumbria University, has written an excellent article, exploring the Yazidi Massacre, specifically focusing it in the context of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide 1948. It highlights what acts of Genocide actually are and challenges of identifying ‘protected groups’. Jade concludes that acts committed by ISIS against the Yazidis satisfy the statutory definition of genocide, and should be recognised as such. A thought-provoking piece, which is very well delivered. We have three dissertations for you to read. Susan B O’Brien, a student who has completed our LLM Employment Law in Practice, looks at reasonable responses versus proportionality in employee dismissal cases. It is a rigorous and fascinating dissertation, arguing that the 1 Northumbria University – ISSN 2632-0452 – All content CC-BY 4.0 Volume 2 Issue 1 Student Journal of Professional Practice and Academic Research relationship between reasonableness and proportionality in cases of employer dismissal is not yet fully settled within case law. Jaxon Hind, a recent graduate of Northumbria University, focused his dissertation on part payment of a debt, promissory estoppel and no oral modification clauses. The recent case of Rock Advertising v MWB Business Exchange Centres [2018] UKSC 24 (SC) considered all of the above mentioned principles, which have been ‘developed in a way where one principle is pitted against another’. Jaxon calls for clarity of promissory estoppel and its place next to No Oral Modification Clauses, with the hope that a future Supreme Court decision may resolve ambiguity surrounding the variation of contracts. This is a complex and well analysed dissertation, when there was little academic research already available around the Rock decision. You may remember Felicity Adams from our previous issue, who published an article exploring the relationship between law and music. She’s back! Felicity’s dissertation argues that the Feminist Judgments Project represents a valuable approach, which reimagines judicial decision making in line with female interests and reinforces the idea it is a more responsive form of judgement. This is particularly so, Felicity argues, for vulnerable and marginalised women ‘whom regularly experience and are subjected to traditional judicial approaches’ and uses the feminist re-judgment of R v Dhaliwal [2006] EWCA Crim 1139 for a deeper analysis of this issue. An excellent dissertation, which made me love Lady Hale even more! As is my tradition in the first issue of the year (it can be a tradition if it has happened twice, right?) we display the highly commended posters from the Poster Conference at Northumbria Law School. This conference includes students from our MLaw and LLB programmes, and the Solicitor Apprenticeship Degree. Many topics are explored, including immigration, knife crime and sex workers. My particular favourite looks at the evolution of sexual offences, using 1950’s adverts! Please remember that these are first year students undertaking independent 2 Northumbria University – ISSN 2632-0452 – All content CC-BY 4.0 Volume 2 Issue 1 Student Journal of Professional Practice and Academic Research research projects, so whilst not everything may be completely correct, it is a huge effort and weeks of work on their part. Finally, we have a beautiful addition to the journal. For the first time we have a voice recorded conference paper, presented by Mohsen Nagheeby, PhD Candidate, Northumbria University. Mohsen first presented this at our annual staff Christmas Conference, and colleagues thought it was too special to keep to ourselves. Mohsen’s thesis focuses on water law and this paper, entitled ‘The Ghosts Around the Coasts: Anarchy and Equity in Transboundary River Basins’, took him to the Helmand River in Afghanistan. Please do have a listen, it really does take one on a journey. I would like to end on a note of thanks. Thank you to the staff who have helped me review and source work for this issue. Thank you to the library staff who put all of this together for you to view. And finally, thank you to our students, who put in an enormous amount of work, and have to deal with me, during the review process. This is only possible due to your passions and dedication to your fields. Enjoy, and I’ll see you in the summer! 3 Northumbria University – ISSN 2632-0452 – All content CC-BY 4.0 Volume 2 Issue 1 Student Journal of Professional Practice and Academic Research The Case For Animal Protection Curricula in Schools in Hong Kong Claudia Man-yiu Tam, The University of Hong Kong Abstract In a city like Hong Kong where animal protection laws replicate outdated British legislation from the early 1900s, extensive educational measures must be taken to raise students’ collective awareness of animal welfare and rights, in order to meet the pressing environmental, social, and moral demands of a rapidly developing society. This article argues that the study of animal protection in Hong Kong school curricula is essential to raising future generations of responsible and empathetic community leaders and members. Not only can such curricula encourage students to make well-informed, healthy, and environmentally-conscious choices as consumers, it also challenges the speciesist “hidden curricula” perpetuated in schools, developing students’ critical and independent thinking skills and empowering them to regain ownership over and accountability for their decisions. It instils empathy in students towards animals, as well as vulnerable groups in society that share a similar narrative of oppression and exploitation, such as women and ethnic minorities. This article refutes the critique of animal protection curricula being a form of indoctrination by challenging the notion that any education system can be truly value-free. Keywords: Animal law; animal protection curricula; humane education; speciesism; Hong Kong school curricula 4 Northumbria University – ISSN 2632-0452 – All content CC-BY 4.0 Volume 2 Issue 1 Student Journal of Professional Practice and Academic Research Introduction The study of animal protection in Hong Kong school curricula is crucial to ensure students receive an education which gives them the moral and intellectual tools to challenge their assumptions, partake in active citizenship and democratic action, take ownership over their everyday choices, and maximise their physical, mental, and moral wellbeing. It targets the inadequate state of animal protection education in the status quo, which legitimises the objectification of animals and ignores the systemic, institutionalised violence towards them, as evidenced through the consumption of animal products in school catering outlets and experimentation on animal bodies in school laboratories.1 Not only does the current state of education jeopardise students’ physical wellbeing, as their bodily health may be partially compromised by the excessive consumption of meat, eggs, and dairy products2, it also harms students’ mental and moral wellbeing

    4/19/13 The Power of Peaceful Activism | VegFund Blog The Power of Peaceful Activism Posted on March 14, 2013 Corey Lee Wrenn, VegFund’s Spring 2013 intern, discusses the history of peaceful activism and why it’s effective. Nonviolence in social movement activism has a long and successful history and works for one very important reason: it attracts people. The more people who are attracted to the movement, the more resources a HOM E movement can gather, and the more successful that movement will be. ABOUT US Nonviolent activism has been central to most social movements. In a survey of over three hundred social movements in the 20th century, Chenoweth and Stephan (2011) found that nonviolent movements were likely to succeed because they increased participation and movement resources. They also tend to lead to PROGRAM S lasting success when a movement accomplishes its goals. VOLUNTEER & INTERN Nonviolent means were hugely popular with most anti-slavery advocates and were important for laying the groundwork for emancipation. Advocates swamped the U.S. mail with abolitionist literature, flooded CONTACT US Congress with petitions, assisted runaways, even boycotted slave-made products such as cotton and sugar. These tactics were low-risk and made participation easy and inviting for all. Without these methods, utilized WHY VEG? for decades before the Civil War, the abolition of slavery would not have even registered in public sentiment, much less the Union agenda. BLOG The Civil Rights movement of the twentieth century also successfully utilized nonviolent protest to raise – 2013 awareness and elicit public sympathy. Marches, sit-ins, and Freedom Riders who rode buses into + March (5) segregated states all utilized peaceful means to convey moral issues in a non-threatening way.

    DISSERTATION PROFESSIONALIZATION, FACTIONALISM, AND SOCIAL MOVEMENT SUCCESS: A CASE STUDY ON NONHUMAN ANIMAL RIGHTS MOBILIZATION Submitted by Corey Lee Wrenn Department of Sociology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2016 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Michael Carolan Lynn Hempel Michael Lacy Marcela Velasco Copyright by Corey Lee Wrenn 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT PROFESSIONALIZATION, FACTIONALISM, AND SOCIAL MOVEMENT SUCCESS: A CASE STUDY ON NONHUMAN ANIMAL RIGHTS MOBILIZATION This project explores the intra-movement interactions between professionalized and radical factions in the social movement arena using a content analysis of movement literature produced by the Nonhuman Animal rights movement between 1980 and 2013. Professionalized factions with greater symbolic capital are positioned to monopolize claimsmaking, disempower competing factions, and replicate their privilege and legitimacy. Radical factions, argued to be important variables in a movement’s health, are thus marginalized, potentially to the detriment of movement success and the constituency for whom they advocate. Specifically, this study explores the role of professionalization in manipulating the tactics and goals of social movement organizations and how the impacts of professionalization may be aggravating factional boundaries. Boundary maintenance may prevent critical discourse within the movement, and it may also provoke the “mining” of radical claimsmaking for symbols that have begun to resonate within the movement and the public. Analysis demonstrates a number of important consequences to professionalization that appear to influence the direction of factional disputes, and ultimately, the shape of the movement. Results indicate some degree of factional fluidity, but professionalization does appear to be a dominant force on movement trajectories by concentrating power in the social change space.

    Atheism in the American Animal Rights Movement: an Invisible Majority

    Atheism in the American Animal Rights Movement: An Invisible Majority COREY LEE WRENN School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research Cornwallis North East University of Kent Canterbury, Kent Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Previous research has alluded to the predominance of atheism in participant pools of the Nonhuman Animal rights movement (Galvin and Herzog 1992; Guither 1998), as well as the correlation between atheism and support for anti-speciesism (Gabriel et al. 2012; The Humane League 2014), but no study to date has independently examined this demographic. This article presents a profile of 210 atheists and agnostics, derived from a larger survey of 287 American vegans conducted in early 2017. Results demonstrate that atheists constitute one of the movement’s largest demographics, and that atheist and agnostic vegans are more likely to adopt veganism out of concern for other animals. While these vegans did not register a higher level of social movement participation than religious vegans, they were more intersectionally oriented and more likely to politically identify with the far left. Given the Nonhuman Animal rights movement’s overall failure to target atheists, these findings suggest a strategic oversight in overlooking the movement’s potentially most receptive demographic. KEYWORDS Animal rights; atheism; secularism; social movements; veganism 1. INTRODUCTION The relationship between atheism and anti-speciesism has shown promise in previous research, but it has only been mentioned parenthetically in studies that otherwise prioritise race, class, gender, social values, political attitudes Environmental Values © 2019 The White Horse Press. doi: Submitted 9 January 2018; accepted 31 January 2019 2 COREY LEE WRENN and other demographic profiles of Nonhuman Animal rights activists, vegans and vegetarians.

    2/22/2020 Vegan Feminism and Education - Interview with Corey L. Wrenn EN - equality for all beings - BLOG RESOURCES Calendar Shop About Vegan Feminism and the Critical Role of Education. Interview with Corey L. Wrenn. February 22, 2020 | India Dr. Corey Lee Wrenn is an academic scholar and lecturer of Sociology with the School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research at the University of Kent. In July 2013, she founded the Vegan Feminist Network as an online platform to make vegan feminist theory more available to non-academics. In this interview she talks about the importance of vegan feminism, the role education can play in fighting oppression, and how she incorporates intersectional social justice praxis in her teaching. Q: When and how did you first into contact with veganism and how has your outlook on veganism changed since? My first connection with veganism was through PETA literature. I was vegetarian since the age of 13 in the early 90s; these were the days before the internet, so I wrote to PETA and received some informational pamphlets. As soon as I learned how my nonvegan food choices hurt other animals, I was ready to opt out of dairy. I’ve now been vegan for about 20 years. My outlook hasn’t changed much as I got into radical vegan politics pretty early on and I’ve only grown from there. Q: You founded the Vegan Feminist Network (VFN) in 2013. What prompted you to start the project and how has it evolved over the years? In 2012, I started teaching gender at Colorado State University.
