Animals in the City (Global Urban Studies)

Laura a Reese
4.9/5 (22949 ratings)
Description:This book presents interdisciplinary research to examine the ongoing debates around non-human animals in urban spaces. It explores how we can better appreciate and accommodate animals in the city, while also exploring the ecological, health, ethical, and cultural implications of the same.The book addresses seven interrelated themes such as blurred boundaries between the human and the nonhuman, the right of non-human species to the city, interactions between the human and nonhuman animals, the fabric of urban space, human and nonhuman complex systems, and collective welfare that forms the basis of a transspecies urban theory. It explains how a holistic understanding of the city requires that these blurred boundaries are acknowledged and critically examined. Chapters analytically consider the need to bring interspecies relationships to the fore to tackle questions of legitimacy and who has the 'right' to the city. These also consider important intersections between the economic, political, social, and cultural aspects of the urban experience. The research contained in the book focuses on the development of an urban theory that would eradicate the divide between humans and other species in cities, and depicts nonhuman animals as social actors that have voices within urban spaces.With global insights on human-animal relationships in a contemporary context, this book will be useful reading for scholars and students of urban studies, animal sciences, animal law, animals and public policy, anthropology and environmental studies interested in the study of animals in cities.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
