Animals and Sociology
The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way and 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 enquiry. This series explores the challenges that animal ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human–animal relations. Specifically, 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; and • produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in character or have multidisciplinary relevance. Titles include: Aysha Akhtar ANIMALS AND PUBLIC HEALTH Why Treating Animals Better Is Critical to Human Welfare Alasdair Cochrane AN INTRODUCTION TO ANIMALS AND POLITICAL THEORY Andrew Knight THE COSTS AND BENEFITS OF ANIMAL EXPERIMENTS Claire Molloy POPULAR MEDIA AND ANIMAL ETHICS Siobhan O’Sullivan ANIMALS, EQUALITY AND DEMOCRACY Thomas Ryan SOCIAL WORK AND ANIMALS: A MORAL INTRODUCTION Kay Peggs ANIMALS AND SOCIOLOGY Joan Schaffner AN INTRODUCTION TO ANIMALS AND THE LAW Forthcoming titles: Mark Bernstein HUMAN–ANIMAL RELATIONS: THE OBLIGATION TO CARE Eleonora Gullone ANIMAL ABUSE AND HUMAN AGGRESSION
