Kantianism for Animals
This open access book revises Kant’s ethical thought in one of its most notorious respects: its exclusion of animals from moral consideration. The book gives readers in animal ethics an accessible introduction to Kant’s views on our duties to others, and his view that we have only ‘indirect’ duties regarding animals. It then investigates how one would have to depart from Kant in order to recognise that animals matter morally for their own sake. Particular attention is paid to Kant’s ‘Formula of Humanity,' the role of autonomy and the moral law, as well as Kant’s notions of practical reason and animal instinct. The result is a deliberately amended version of Kantianism which nevertheless remains faithful to central aspects of Kant’s thought. The book’s final part illustrates the framework’s use in applied contexts, addressing the issues of using animals as mere means, the ethics of veganism and vegetarianism, and environmental protection. Nico Dario Müller shows how, when furnished with duties to animals, Kant's moral philosophy can be a powerful resource for animal ethicists.
Partizipation: das Zusammenwirken der Vielen für Demokratie, Wirtschaft und Umwelt
Die Lebensweise auf unserem Planeten muss sich ändern, um seine ökologischen Grenzen zu wahren. Die erforderlichen Strategien für eine ökologisch, ökonomisch und sozial nachhaltige Zukunft werden breit diskutiert und vielversprechende Konzepte liegen auf dem Tisch. Zu deren Umsetzung ist allerdings das Zutun der Vielen erforderlich. Wie gelingt es, die Beteiligung der Menschen für Demokratie, Nachhaltigkeit und wirtschaftliche Zielsetzungen in einem wirkungsvollen Maßstab zu erreichen? Im zwölften Band der Reihe 'University - Society - Industry' diskutieren 31 Autorinnen und Autoren unterschiedlicher Wissenschaftsdisziplinen und Praxisfelder wirkungsvolle Methoden der Beteiligung. Gemeinsam erörtern sie die Frage: 'Wie bündeln wir unsere Kräfte, um den zukünftigen Herausforderungen in Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und Umwelt gemeinsam zu begegnen?' Sie geben Impulse für eine inklusive Gestaltung der Demokratie, diskutieren partizipative Wirtschaftsmodelle und gehen der Frage nach, welche Tranformationspfade beschritten werden müssen, um nachhaltige Verhaltensweisen und klimaschützende Entscheidungen zu unterstützen.

Cow Care in Hindu Animal Ethics
This open access book provides both a broad perspective and a focused examination of cow care as a subject of widespread ethical concern in India, and increasingly in other parts of the world. In the face of what has persisted as a highly charged political issue over cow protection in India, intellectual space must be made to bring the wealth of Indian traditional ethical discourse to bear on the realities of current human-animal relationships, particularly those of humans with cows. Dharma, yoga, and bhakti paradigms serve as starting points for bringing Hindu—particularly Vaishnava Hindu—animal ethics into conversation with contemporary Western animal ethics. The author argues that a culture of bhakti—the inclusive, empathetic practice of spirituality centered in Krishna as the beloved cowherd of Vraja—can complement recently developed ethics-of-care thinking to create a solid basis for sustaining all kinds of cow care communities.
Subhuman
How do we think about animals? How do we decide what they deserve and how we ought to treat them? Subhuman takes an interdisciplinary approach to these questions, drawing from research in philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, law, history, sociology, economics, and anthropology. Subhuman argues that our attitudes to nonhuman animals, both positive and negative, largely arise from our need to compare ourselves to them.
Mental Health and Well-Being in Animals
The past few decades have seen a virtual explosion of scientific research in the area of cognition, emotions, suffering, and mental states in animals. Studies in the field, laboratory, and clinical medical practice have amassed an overwhelming body of evidence demonstrating that mental well-being is of paramount importance in all aspects of animal care. There is no longer any reasonable doubt among researchers that mental health is of equal importance as physical health and animal well-being. Recent research convincingly shows that physical health is strongly influenced by mental states, thereby making it clear that effective health care requires attention to the emotional well-being as well...
