Zoos: A Philosophical Tour

Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:In this book, Keekok Lee asks the question, 'what is an animal, and how does our treatment of it within captivity affect its status as a being?' This ontological treatment marks the first such approach in looking at animals in captivity. Engaging with the moral questions of zoo-keeping (is it morally justified to keep a wild animal in captivity?) as well as the ontological (what is it that we conserve in zoos after all? A wild animal or its shadow?), Lee develops her own original hypothesis, centred around the concept of 'immuration' - defining this in contrast to domestication - and thereby provides a unique addition to the growing body of work on animal ethics.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
