The sociological imagination and the representation of pandemic futures in The Animals in That CountryJosephine BrowneIndex N2 - This book situates sociological research as a vital tool for understanding, and responding to, the multispecies entanglements that cause, inform and arise from states of crisis involving the environment, climate and zoonotic disease transmission. Considering the consequences of a range of multispecies engagements that challenge the perceived distinction between the social worlds of humans and other animals, it explores the themes of crisis through a range of studies, including ecological disturbance, consumer culture, intensive farming and interspecies relations in urban life. With attention to central questions about life in ⁰́₈the now normal⁰́₉, including the extent to which a human⁰́₃animal perspective can contribute to our understanding of pandemics, the ideological foundations of mainstream norms for human⁰́₃animal relations and the scope of current and emerging social movements for reshaping human⁰́₃animal relations, this volume represents a timely and important call for a sociological vision to embrace the implications of a multispecies planet and to expand the concepts of inclusion and justice. A reconsideration of the human⁰́₃animal relation that seeks both to revise sociology⁰́₉s past and inform its future, Human⁰́₃Animal Relationships in Times of Pandemic and Climate Crises will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in human⁰́₃animal relations and the environment UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003257912 ER -
