Food for thought, from the VSS e-newsletter, 16th Dec 2012:
Next Step, Animal Abolitionism
How should we treat non-human animals? Is it enough not to cause them harm? In this episode of Philosophy Bites, Gary Francione, Distinguished Professor of Law at Rutgers School of Law-Newark, argues that we need to go one step further than Jeremy Bentham did and abolish all use of animals. He calls his approach abolitionism.
