Animal Suffering
Iste Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-78945-121-4 (ISBN)
This volume starts with an exploration of the capture of animals intended for European zoological parks, the treatment of animals in South Korea, pig farming in China and animal testing in Europe. It goes on to explore animal politics, with a focus on Europe. The moral problems posed by the different types of harm caused to animals are then approached from the vantage point of moral philosophy.
Finally, the points of view of veterinary sciences and applied ethics related to animal emotions, suffering and death complete the picture.

Emilie Dardenne is senior lecturer in English and animal studies at Université Rennes 2, France, where she heads the animals and society teaching program. Her research interests include mainstream and critical animal studies.
