"Animals in Schools "explores important questions in the field of
critical animal studies and education by close examination of a
wide range of educational situations and classroom activities. How
are human- animal relations expressed and discussed in school? How
do teachers and students develop strategies to handle ethical
conflicts arising from the ascribed position of animals as
accessible to human control, use, and killing? How do schools deal
with topics such as zoos, hunting, and meat consumption? These are
questions that have profound implications for education and
society. They are graphically described, discussed, and rendered
problematic based on detailed ethnographic research and are
analyzed by means of a synthesis of perspectives from critical
theory, gender, and postcolonial thought. "Animals in Schools
"makes human-animal relations a crucial issue for pedagogical
theory and practice. In the various physical and social dimensions
of the school environment, a diversity of social representations of
animals are produced and reproduced. These representations tell
stories about human-animal boundaries and identities and bring to
the fore a complex set of questions about domination and
subordination, normativity and deviance, rationality and empathy,
as well as possibilities of resistance and change.
