Contents:

pt. 1. Commodity fetishism and structural violence -- pt. 2. Animals, Marxism, and the Frankfurt school -- pt. 3. Speciesism and ideologies of domination -- pt. 4. Problems in praxis.

Summary: Critical Theory and Animal Liberation is the first collection to approach our relationship with other animals from the critical or "left" tradition in political and social thought. Breaking with past treatments that have framed the problem as one of "animal rights," the authors instead depict the exploitation and killing of other animals as a political question of the first order. The contributions highlight connections between our everyday treatment of animals and other forms of social power, mass violence, and domination, from capitalism and patriarchy to genocide, fascism, and ecocide.
