Do animals have legal rights? This pioneering book tells readers
everything they need to know about animal rights law. Using
straightforward examples from over 30 legal systems from both the
civil and common law traditions, and based on popular courses run
by the authors at the Cambridge Centre for Animal Rights, the book
takes the reader from the earliest anti-cruelty laws to modern
animal welfare laws, to recent attempts to grant basic rights and
personhood to animals. To help readers understand this legal
evolution, it explains the ethics, legal theory, and social issues
behind animal rights and connected topics such as property,
subjecthood, dignity, and human rights. The book's companion
website (bloomsbury.pub/animal-rights-law) provides access to
briefs on the latest developments in this fast-changing area, and
gives readers the tools to investigate their own legal systems with
a list of key references to the latest cases, legislation, and
jurisdiction-specific bibliographic references. Rich in exercises
and study aids, this easy-to-use introduction is a prime resource
for students from all disciplines and for anyone else who wants to
understand how animals are protected by the law.
