Zoopolis : A Political Theory of Animal Rights
Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2011. orig. boards, dustwrapper.. 24x16cm, vii,329 pp.. ISBN: 9780199599660. Minor wear. VG.
¶ Contents: Universal basic rights for animals -- Extending animal rights via citizenship theory -- Domesticated animals within animal rights theory -- Domesticated animal citizens -- Wild animal sovereignty -- Liminal animal denizens -- Conclusion. ["Zoopolis offers a new agenda for the theory and practice of animal rights. Most animal rights theory focuses on the intrinsic capacities or interests of animals, and the moral status and moral rights that these intrinsic characteristics give rise to. Zoopolis shifts the debate from the real of moral theory and applied ethics to the realm of political theory, focusing on the relational obligations that arise from the varied ways that animals relate to human societies and institutions. Building on recent developments in the political theory of group-differentiated citizenship, Zoopolis introduces us to the genuine " political animal." It argues that different types of animals stand in different relationships to human political communities. Domesticated animals should be seen as full members of human-animal mixed communities, participating in the cooperative project of shared citizenship. Wilderness animals, by contrast, form their own sovereign communities entitled to protection against colonization, invasion, domination, and other threats to self-determination. "Liminal" animals who are wild but live in the midst of human settlement (such as crows or raccoons) should be seen as " denizens", residents of our societies, but not fully included in rights and responsibilities of citizenship..." - publisher's description].

Multicultural Citizenship: a Liberal Theory of Minority Rights (Oxford Political Theory)
Clarendon Press 2013 Softcover, 296pp. The increasingly multicultural fabric of modern societies has given rise to many new issues and conflicts, as ethnic and national minorities demand recognition and support for their cultural identity. This book presents a new conception of the rights and status of minority cultures. It argues that certain 'collective rights' of minority cultures are consistent with liberal democratic principles, and that standard liberal objections to such rights can be answered. However, the author emphasizes that no single formula can be applied to all groups, and that the needs and aspirations of immigrants are very different from those of indigenous peoples and national minorities. He looks at issues such as language rights, group representation, religious education, federalism, and secession&151;issues central to an understanding of multicultural politics, but which have been neglected in contemporary liberal theory. Scholars of political theory and philosophy, as well as the general reader, will find this work to be the most comprehensive analysis to date of this crucial political issue. (ISBN: 9780198290919). Very Good.
