Talking Animals, Law and Philosophy: 'A Theory of Global Inter-Species Justice'

Speaker: Alasdair Cochrane (Senior Lecturer in Political Theory, Department of Politics, University of Sheffield)

A veritable animal turn has occurred in many fields of thinking, sweeping away outdated philosophical and scientific beliefs, and making room for more thoughtful, sensible study of the relation between humans and other animals. Law and legal science, however, have remained relatively untouched by this revolution. The talk series “Talking Animals, Law and Philosophy” wants to remedy this situation by providing a welcoming, engaging and rigorous forum for debate and ideas about the relations between animals, law and philosophy.
