This illuminating study explores crimes against, and involving, wildlife and the resultant social harms. The authors go well beyond basic conceptions of animal-related crime, such as illicit trade, for a deeper exploration of wildlife criminology, using a novel approach that combines philosophical, legal and criminological perspectives. They shed light on both legal and illegal harms, including blood sports, wildlife as food and abuse in zoos, and consider the potential connections with inter-human crimes. This is a unique treatment of wildlife as victims of crime and a consideration of their rights as sentient beings that sets new horizons for the concept of wildlife criminology.

In Beyond Prejudice, Evelyn B. Pluhar defends the view that any sentient conative being—one capable of caring about what happens to him or herself—is morally significant, a view that supports the moral status and rights of many nonhuman animals. Confronting traditional and contemporary philosophical arguments, she offers in clear and accessible fashion a thorough examination of theories of moral significance while decisively demonstrating the flaws in the arguments of those who would avoid attributing moral rights to nonhumans.Exposing the traditional view—which restricts the moral realm to autonomous, fully fledged "persons"—as having horrific implications for the treatment of many humans, Pluhar goes on to argue positively that sentient individuals of any species are no less morally significant than the most automomous human. Her position provides the ultimate justification that is missing from previous defenses of the moral status of nonhuman animals. In the process of advancing her position, Pluhar discusses the implications of determining moral significance for children and "abnormal" humans as well as its relevance to population policies, the raising of animals for food or product testing, decisions on hunting and euthanasia, and the treatment of companion animals. In addition, the author scrutinizes recent assertions by environmental ethicists that all living things or that natural objects and ecosystems be considered highly morally significant. This powerful book of moral theory challenges all defenders of the moral status quo—which decrees that animals decidedly do not count—to reevaluate their convictions.

Kann eine Analogisierung von animalischen und sozio-politischen Ordnungen funktionieren? Auf welche Art und Weise fungieren Tiere als Medium der Darstellung und Reflexion politischer Ordnungen? In Hinblick auf diese Fragen wird insbesondere das Verhältnis zwischen Tieren und menschlicher Kollektivität in den Vordergrund gerückt und diskutiert. Diese Relation tritt in mindestens drei Erscheinungsformen zutage – erstens: als Kontrastrelation, als politisches Ausschlussprinzip, wie in den traditionellen Interpretationen des »zoon politikon«; zweitens: als Korrespondenzrelation, als Analogisierung animalischer und sozio-politischer Ordnungen; drittens: als Äquivalenzrelation, als Interaktion, als Beziehung zwischen Mensch und Tier, die selbst politisch ist.
