Brute Force: Animal Police and the Challenge of Cruelty
ISBN: 9781557534507 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 175 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Brute Force looks at people having the most contact with everyday animal abuse- humane law enforcement officers who are charged with enforcing anti-cruelty statutes. The author spent one year studying 30 animal cops and dispatchers in two large cities. They see themselves as a power for the helpless, a voice for the mute. On-the-job experience changes this view. Rather than fighting the good fight against egregious cases of cruelty, they are overwhelmed with complaints that are ambiguous and must be stretched to qualify as legally defined abuse or with complaints barking dogs or thin pets...

Just a Dog: Understanding Animal Cruelty and Ourselves
ISBN: 9781592134717 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In "Just a Dog", Arnold Arluke argues that animal cruelty must be understood in terms of social relationships rather than an individual's psychological problem or personality disorder. Arluke situates cruelty in actual situations where groups of people decide, on their own terms, what constitutes the wrongful harm of animals and how best to communicate their understanding to others. He captures how law enforcement agents, shelter workers, humane marketers, the general public, and animal abusers (or neglecters), make sense of animal cruelty. In each case, cruelty's meaning reflects the...

Regarding Animals
ISBN: 9781566394413 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What is it about Western society, ask the authors, that makes it possible for people to express great affection for animals as sentient creatures and simultaneously turn a blind eye to the most callous behavior toward them? Animals are sold as expensive commodities, used as food and clothing, killed as vermin and hunted for sport. But they also are treated as members of the family, used as the cause celebre of social movements, and made the subject of art, film and poetry. In this book, the people who work with the animals and live through them talk to the authors about the strategies they...
