    Veganism isn't shopping

    Veganism isn't shopping

    In this series, the big theme has been systems with special attention to economics and capitalism. Selling as many different products is one of the principal manifestations of capitalism. And in the context of vegan products - What’s it mean to have more vegan products available to buy? Do more vegan products mean fewer animals are being exploited for their bodies and secretions? Is veganism about products? Is veganism winning? I share my thoughts about this and more in the last episode for this season.

    War: An Animal Rights Perspective

    War: An Animal Rights Perspective

    Sara van Goozen and Josh Milburn are the first to include considering harm to animals in just war theory. Broadly speaking, just war theory looks at whether a war is justified and if so, how that war should be conducted. They authored "Counting Animals in War: First Steps towards an Inclusive Just-War Theory” published in the journal Social Theory and Practice.Sara is a lecturer at the University of York. Her research focuses on topics in contemporary just war theory and global ethics. She’s written about just risk distribution in war, the moral status of animals in war and the distribution of scarce medical resources. Sara is also interested in various other areas in contemporary political theory, such as the literature on political obligation and sovereignty.

    Josh is a moral and political philosopher interested in questions about human/animal relationships, food, liberal/libertarian political theory, and applied ethics. He’s a Lecturer in Political Philosophy at Loughborough University and a member of the Research Advisory Committee of the Vegan Society. Josh is the host of the animal studies podcast Knowing Animals, which is streaming on all platforms and his first book, Just Fodder: The Ethics of feeding animals, was the subject of an earlier episode of this podcast.

    Human Privilege: The Power Dynamic between People and Animals

    Human Privilege: The Power Dynamic between People and Animals

    For his Master Thesis, Tim Reysoo developed the concept of human privilege by extending the notion of social privilege to make sense of the enormous power differential between humans and animals in society. He develops the concept and social category of “species privilege” and “human innocence”.

    Tim studied Philosophy and International Development Studies at the University of Amsterdam. He conducted his graduate fieldwork in Ghana on the role of social movements in Leaving Fossil Fuels Underground. Tim also has extensive experience running animal rights campaigns, doing vegan street outreach, promoting plant-based policies to the government, and holding public lectures on the issue of animal oppression.

    Vegan diets for animals

    Vegan diets for animals

    Doctor Josh Milburn's book, Just Fodder: The ethics of feeding animals (McGill-Queen's University Press), explores a variety of questions from “Who are we obliged to feed? Who are we permitted to feed? What are we allowed to feed animals? To What is the role of the state in feeding animals? And How might obligations concerning the feeding of animals differ from obligations concerning the feeding of humans and why?

    These are thought provoking questions and this book really pushed me to consider things in ways I just wasn’t expecting.

    Josh is a moral and political philosopher interested in questions about human/animal relationships, food, liberal/libertarian political theory, and applied ethics. He’s a Lecturer in Political Philosophy at Loughborough University and a member of the Research Advisory Committee of the Vegan Society. Josh is the host of the animal studies podcast Knowing Animals, which is streaming on all platforms.

    Economics of Fashion: a Vegan Perspective

    Economics of Fashion: a Vegan Perspective

    Joshua Katcher and Tracey Katof are researching the fashion industry as a compelling case-study for the macroeconomic phenomenon of circumfauna, a term Joshua coined. They analyse the social, historical, and environmental influences on the large-scale shift towards intentionally reframing supply chains without animals.

    Joshua Katcher is a fashion designer, author and educator who has taught at Parsons and has lectured at universities internationally and lobbied in the United States for sustainable and ethical fashion. He’s the author of Fashion Animals, the creator of the men's vegan lifestyle website, The Discerning Brute and founder of the vegan, ethically-made menswear fashion brand, Brave GentleMan. He also co-founded the vegan cheese company RIND.

    Tracey Katof is a financial analyst and an economics writer and educator. She received her master's in humane education from Valparaiso University and the Institute for Humane Education and later this year will receive a master's of global political economy and finance from the New School for Social Research.

    Factionalism in the vegan movement

    Factionalism in the vegan movement

    Infighting. It’s something people in the veganverse complain about. So what do we mean by infighting? Is it something unique to the vegan and animal rights space? Should we be concerned about it? Does it benefit one group over another? How should we engage with it if at all? And what might be some of its consequences, if any?

    If this is something you think about or have encountered, you’re not alone. My guest is Dr Corey Lee Wrenn, Lecturer of Sociology and Co-Director of the Centre for the Study of Social and Political Movements at the University of Kent. She has researched and written on factionalism.
