With contributions from over 135 international experts, this Encyclopedia provides an expansive overview of the emerging field of animal law. Focusing on the legal regulation of human interactions with non-human animals, the volume serves as an insightful guide to how the law can promote the wellbeing of animals as well as the environment.
Entries by leading specialists delve into the history of the animal law movement, the science exploring animal welfare and animal sentience, and ethics, law, and politics. They also examine the relationship between animals and artificial intelligence and discuss how human responsibility for animals manifests economically and socially, including through insurance and civil and criminal liability.
The Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Animal Law is a vital resource for students and scholars in animal studies, criminal law, and law and society, as well as lawyers and policymakers. The contributions are also invaluable to animal advocates and to lawyers working in a variety of contexts, including for government agencies and non-profit organisations.
