The discourse of animal rights is one that increasingly occupies the political, ethical and intellectual terrain of modern society. But, although the question of the status of animals holds an important place within a range of civil, political and technological disciplines, the issue of rights in relation to animals usually rehearses the familiar perspectives of legal, moral and humanist philosophy. ‘Animal law’ is fast becoming a topic of significant contemporary interest and discussion. This burgeoning interest has not, however, been matched by renewed inquiry into the jurisprudential frames and methods for the treatment of animals in law, nor the philosophical issue of the ‘human’ and the ‘animal’ that lies at law’s foundation. Responding to this interest, Law and the Question of the Animal: A Critical Jurisprudence brings together leading and emerging critical legal theorists to address the question of animality in relation to law’s foundations, practices and traditions of thought. In so doing, it engages a surprisingly underdeveloped aspect of the moral philosophies of animal rights, namely their juridical register and existence. How does ‘animal law’ alter our juridical image of personality or personhood? How do the technologies of law intersect with the technologies that invent, create and manage animal life? And how might the ethical, ontological and ceremonial relation between humans and animals be linked to a common source or experience of law?
Yoriko Otomo is a Lecturer in Law at the School of Oriental and African Studies. Her research looks at the intersection between International Law and Animal Law, in particular at the ways in which processes of colonization and globalization have influenced jurisprudence relating to animals.
Edward Mussawir is a lecturer at Griffith Law School Brisbane and the author of Jurisdiction in Deleuze: The Expression and Representation of Law. His research has focused on the reception of the work of Gilles Deleuze in jurisprudence and the theories of persons, possession, procedure and judgment
