"The Rights of Animals and the Demands of Nature"

Jamieson, Dale. “The Rights of Animals and the Demands of Nature.” Environmental Values 17, no. 2 (2008): 181–99. doi:10.3197/096327108X303846.

This paper discusses two central themes of the work of Alan Holland: the relations between the natural and the normative and how our duties regarding animals cohere with our obligations to respect nature. I explicate and defend an anti-speciesist argument that entails strong moral demands on how we should live and what we should eat. I conclude by discussing the implications of anti-speciesism for rewilding and reintroduction programmes.
