Just as climate change and environmental sustainability have become
growing concerns in public discourse, so too have they become a
persistent focus in business and organization studies. It is
increasingly acknowledged that humans and animals do not dwell in
separate spheres; rather, they are entangled in a number of
commercial or organizational settings, and organization theory
needs to respond more comprehensively to this more-than-human shift
in outlook. Important questions continue to arise about the nature
of contemporary organization and organizing practices: who are
these for? Who benefits from the operation of increasingly
globalized capital markets? What place is there for the nonhuman
animals in all this organization? What place is there for
multispecies companionship, solidarity, and mutual value creation
today and in the future, if any? This volume brings together
interdisciplinary work on human-animal relationships within
business, management, and organization for the first time. It maps
the contours of an emerging new discipline, here termed 'Animal
Organization Studies', touching on the politics, theory, and
empirical experience of multispecies life-worlds. Spanning a number
of disciplinary approaches including critical geography, critical
management studies, social studies of science, and human-animal
studies, the volume highlights the contact points as well as the
tensions in humanity's relationship with a range of animal species
and habitats. It holds relevance for those investigating debates
around humanism and its futures; environmental and sustainability
matters; the experience of working with and on animals, and the
future of animal consumption and production.
