By contrasting the thinking of Hegel, Marx and the Frankfurt School with classical authors in the field of animal rights (such as Singer, Regan, and Francione) this text offers an alternative, social and dialectical theory of animality and a different practical approach to the problem of animal suffering. The hopes for change placed in veganism, liberationism and animal activism are here assumed in a political, revolutionary perspective, in which human and animal liberation finally cease to oppose each other. 410 0$aHistorical materialism book series ;$vVolume 235. 606 $aAnimal rights$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aAnimal rights$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a179.3 700 $aMaurizi$b Marco$f1974-$0447536 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794503003321 996 $aBeyond nature$93711892 997 $aUNINA
