In our complex, consumerist societies, the intricacy of personal
interactions and the number of goods and products available often
prevents us from direct knowledge of what lies 'behind' food
behaviors, ingredients, and the origins of the modern food and
agriculture supply chain. Over the last decade or so, scholars,
lawyers and engaged lay vegans have had many discussions about
vegan rights and discrimination as issues intrinsic to animal
rights, but the final frontier remains intact: the direct concerns
of other animals. To give effect to the rights of animals, we must
recognize and defend the human right-or duty, as many uphold-- to
care about them. Including contributors from Australia, the United
States, Germany, Italy, France, Canada, Portugal, and the United
Kingdom, this book explores the rights of vegans and how vegans can
be protected from discrimination. Using an international
socio-legal lens, the contributors discuss constitutional issues,
vegan legal cases, the concept of protection for vegan 'belief' in
human rights and equality law, the legal requirement to provide
vegan food, animal agriculture and plant-based, vegan food in the
context of the human right to food, and the rights of vegans in
education and in health care. This book will be of interest to
practicing lawyers, legal and critical legal scholars, scholars of
vegan, and critical animal studies, and commentors on
socio-political issues alike.
