Animal Rights, Human Rights: Ecology, Economy, and Ideology in the Canadian Arctic

Autor George Wenzel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 1991
This book is both a careful academic study and a disturbing comment on how environmental activity may oppress a whole society, which raises serious questions about the motives and methods of the animal rights' movement in a much wider context than the case here studied.

Recenzii

'If Inuit have the right to cultural survival - the only alternative to total assimilation into the "southern" Canadian mainstream, then Animal Rights, Human Rights is a vitally important book. In an era when we, as a country, are trying hard to recognize native rights and distinctiveness, Canadian should acknowledge the impact of the anti-sealing campaign. This book forces you to look the issue straight in the face. It is indeed a question of rights.' -- David E. Pelly Canadian Geographic 'This book illustrates beautifully the destructive, anti-ecological premises of economics that endanger peoples as well as environments. It also shows how naive, even obtuse, semi-skills of the protectionist lobby can be perverted to harm both the animals they seek to save and the human societies interwoven with them.' -- L.R. Taylor Journal of Animal Ecology 'This book's cogent arguments for human rights, its dispassionate tone, and its conclusions make it vital reading for all who are concerned about the environment, man's role vis-a-vis animals, and the wider implications of animal rights. As powerful, in its own fashion, as Farley Mowat's People of the Deer.' -- J.A. Casda Choice 'Animal Rights, Human Rights is much more than a social history - it is a tool for understanding.' -- Alan Saunders Arctic Circle
