Education for Total Liberation is a collection of essays from
leaders in the field of critical animal pedagogy (CAP). CAP emerges
from activist educators teaching critical animal studies and is
rooted in critical theory as well as the animal advocacy movement.
Critical animal studies (CAS) argues for an interdisciplinary
approach to understanding our relationships with nonhuman animals.
CAS challenges two specific fields of theory: (1) animal studies,
rooted in vivisection and testing on animals in the hard sciences
and (2) human-animal studies, which reinforces a socially
constructed binary between humans and animals and adopts abstract
theoretical approaches. In contrast, CAS takes a progressive and
committed approach to scholarship and sees the exploitation of
nonhuman animals as interrelated with oppression of humans based on
class, gender, race, ability, sexuality, age, and citizenship. CAS
promotes the liberation of all animals and challenges all systems
of domination. Education for Total Liberation is appropriate for
undergraduate and graduate level readers (and beyond) who wish to
learn from examples of radical pedagogical projects shaped by CAS
and critical pedagogy. Contributing to this collection are Anne C.
Bell, Anita de Melo, Carolyn Drew, Amber E. George, Karin
Gunnarsson Dinker, Sinem Ketenci, John Lupinacci, Anthony J.
Nocella II, Sean Parson, Helena Pedersen, Ian Purdy, Constance L.
Russell, J.L. Schatz, Meneka Repka, William E. Shanahan III, and
Richard J, White.
Dragons are the keepers of consciousness. They removed themselves
from human consciousness roughly 5000 years ago, when people
stopped looking to the sky and began looking to the Earth for
answers to the fundamental questions. Dragons have maintained a
presence in every culture on every continent, through legends,
statues and effigies. When the People's Business Party start
tearing down dragon symbols and replacing them with their logos,
the dragons have no choice. Without their ubiquitous presence,
humanity will drift even further from reality until eventually they
are only conscious of themselves. To protect the future, the
keepers of consciousness cannot allow this to happen.
In today's world of social media, instant communication and the
desire to share opinions (good and bad), your customers are more
powerful than ever and holding on to them is becoming more
difficult. A revolution is underway. If your organisation is ready
to take advantage of the opportunities this revolution offers, then
this guide is for you. Authors Ian and Sheila Purdy show that
everything that you and your staff do can have a positive effect on
your customers' experiences and perceptions of your organisation.
They present straightforward ideas for building the voice of your
customers into your processes and creating an environment in which
quality is everyone's business. Presenting a pragmatic approach,
this guide will help your organisation refocus its quality system
and so profit from this customer-led quality revolution.
