This wide-ranging volume explores the tension between the dietary
practice of veganism and the manifestation, construction, and
representation of a vegan identity in today’s society. Emerging
in the early 21st century, vegan studies is distinct from more
familiar conceptions of "animal studies," an umbrella term for a
three-pronged field that gained prominence in the late 1990s and
early 2000s, consisting of critical animal studies, human animal
studies, and posthumanism. While veganism is a consideration of
these modes of inquiry, it is a decidedly different entity, an
ethical delineator that for many scholars marks a complicated
boundary between theoretical pursuit and lived experience. The
Routledge Handbook of Vegan Studies is the must-have reference for
the important topics, problems, and key debates in the subject area
and is the first of its kind. Comprising over 30 chapters by a team
of international contributors, this handbook is divided into five
parts: History of vegan studies Vegan studies in the disciplines
Theoretical intersections Contemporary media entanglements Veganism
around the world These sections contextualize veganism beyond its
status as a dietary choice, situating veganism within broader
social, ethical, legal, theoretical, and artistic discourses. This
book will be essential reading for students and researchers of
vegan studies, animal studies, and environmental ethics.
