Description
The Poverty of Animals offers a groundbreaking examination of animal welfare through a Marxist lens, challenging conventional perspectives on how economic systems shape our relationship with non-human animals. Published by Routledge, this book bridges critical animal studies and political economy, exploring how capitalism influences the treatment and conditions of animals across agricultural, industrial and domestic contexts. The author develops a theoretical framework that positions animal suffering within broader structures of exploitation and inequality, arguing that genuine animal welfare cannot be achieved without addressing the economic systems that commodify living beings. This work is essential reading for scholars, activists and students interested in the intersections of Marxist theory, environmental ethics and animal rights, providing intellectual tools for reconceptualising our obligations to animals in capitalist societies.

Key Features

The Poverty of Animals presents a Marxist framework for analysing animal welfare within capitalist economic systems.

Routledge publishes this scholarly title, bringing academic rigour to the intersection of political economy and animal studies.

The book examines how industrial and agricultural practices commodify animals, linking welfare issues to broader systems of exploitation.

This work provides theoretical resources for students and scholars studying critical animal theory, environmental philosophy and Marxist thought.

The author connects animal suffering to capitalist structures, offering a distinctive perspective beyond conventional animal welfare approaches.
