The staggering rate of environmental pollution and animal abuse
despite constant efforts to educate the public and raise awareness
challenges the prevailing belief that the absence of serious action
is a consequence of a poorly informed public. In recent decades
alternative explanations of social and political inaction have
emerged, including denialism. Challenging the information-deficit
model, denialism proposes that people actively avoid unpleasant
information that threatens their established worldviews,
lifestyles, and identities. Environmental and Animal Abuse Denial:
Averting Our Gaze analyzes how people avoid awareness of climate
change, environmental pollution, animal abuse, and the animal
industrial complex. The contributors examine the theory of
denialism in regards to environmental pollution and animal abuse
through a range of disciplines, including social psychology,
sociology, anthropology, philosophy, cultural history and law.
