It explores the history and development of animal industries in Nordic countries from their establishment in the late nineteenth century to the present day. These countries are often considered to be progressive and advanced in animal protection, but consumption practices in this area are actually excessive in relation to planetary resources and are among the most unsustainable on a global scale. If we want to understand current problems, it is essential to be aware of long-term changes and continuities, as well as the diversity of animals that have been exploited. The purpose of this book is to explain these changes and provide new knowledge for scholars in human-animal studies, decisionmakers and the general public.HISTORY / Europe / GeneralbisacshAnimal studies.Nordic countries.factory farming.sustainability.HISTORY / Europe / General.179.30948Jalava Marja, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKaarlenkaski Taija, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLatva Otto, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNikkilä Eeva, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRäsänen Tuomas, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSyrjämaa Taina, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996588064203316Animal Industries4148338UNISA
