This book examines the ethics, politics and aesthetics of veganism
in contemporary culture and thought. Traditionally a lifestyle
located on the margins of western culture, veganism has now been
propelled into the mainstream, and as agribusiness grows animal
issues are inextricably linked to environmental impact as well as
to existing ethical concerns. This collection connects veganism to
a range of topics including gender, sexuality, race, the law and
popular culture. It explores how something as basic as one's food
choices continue to impact on the cultural, political, and
philosophical discourse of the modern day, and asks whether the
normalization of veganism strengthens or detracts from the radical
impetus of its politics. With a Foreword by Melanie Joy and Jens
Tuidor, this book analyzes the mounting prevalence of veganism as
it appears in different cultural shifts and asks how veganism might
be rethought and re-practised in the twenty-first century.
