Critical Animal Geographies provides new geographical perspectives on critical animal studies exploring the spatial political and ethical dimensions of animals’ lived experience and human-animal encounters. It works toward a more radical politics and theory directed at the shifting boundary between human and animal. Chapters draw together feminist political-economic post-humanist anarchist postcolonial and critical race literatures with original case studies in order to see how efforts by some humans to control and order life – human and not – violate constrain and impinge upon others. Central to all chapters is a commitment to grappling with the stakes – violence death life autonomy – of human-animal encounters. Equally the work in the collection addresses head-on the dominant forces shaping and dependent on these encounters: capitalism racism colonialism and so on. In doing so the book pushes readers to confront how human-animal relations are mixed up with overlapping axes of power and exploitation including gender race class and species. | Critical Animal Geographies Politics intersections and hierarchies in a multispecies world
