Description
This innovative volume provides contemporary insight into critical interspecies debates from an analytical perspective through the lens of punk.
Punk & the Animal explores the synergies, crossovers, and alignments of punk thinking, together with punk ideologies and influences, in contemporary animal studies. The volume includes contributions from leaders in the punk movement who engaged in exemplary practices that helped forge ongoing connections between punk and animal studies.
In addition, it includes chapters by artists, scholars of visual and popular culture, animal studies specialists, and others in artistic and art-affiliated disciplines who have found their way into animal studies from one of the many manifestations of punk and who see punk's ethos, ethics, and aesthetics as formative to their own work.
