Animal Welfare in Australia: Politics and Policy
Peter John Chen
Sydney University Press
ISBN: 9781743324738
In the last two decades animal rights has moved from a marginal issue to a recurrent policy issue with mainstream interest. Animal Welfare in Australia studies animal protection politics, including relevant literature, and examines emerging concepts of interest group ecology models, activation, mobilisation and social movement theory.
“This book will be an instant classic among animal studies scholars in Australia.”
—Dr Siobhan O’Sullivan, Senior Lecturer in Social Policy, University of New South Wales
