'Carceral logics permeate our thinking about humans and nonhumans. We imagine that greater punishment will reduce crime and make society safer. We hope more convictions and policing for animal crimes will keep animals safe and elevate their social status. The dominant approach to human-animal relations is governed by an unjust imbalance of power that subordinates or ignores the interest nonhumans have in freedom. In this volume, Gruen and Marceau invited experts to provide insights into the complicated intersection of issues that arise in thinking about animal law, violence, mass incarceration, and social change. Carceral Logics is remarkable in how far it expands and deepens our understanding of the animal protection movement's carceral tendencies, the impulses that motivate them, and the alternatives before us. This book will undoubtedly not only shape research and debate, but help to inform the continued development of a more just and inclusive animal protection movement.' Mercy For Animals
