Reviews
This book is so fundamentally necessary in a time in which diversity politics is conflated with transformation. -Marisol Burgueno, Poetry Behind the Walls I would recommend this book to any individual who is willing to candidly reflect on their role as accomplices in perpetuating predatory capitalism and their urgent need to subvert the violence of neoliberalism and its trajectory towards appropriation. -Arash Daneshzadeh, Editor, Transformative Justice Journal In recent years, the importance of social movements has become more of an important part of advancing critical animal studies toward what Socha and Nocella propose as radical animal studies. Radical Animal Studies: Beyond Respectability Politics, Opportunism, and Cooptation offers a timely collection of thoughtful essays that center diversity in activist-scholarship and teach of the importance of radical theory and action through (and with) social movements that include animal liberation together with social justice. -Johnny Lupinacci, Associate Professor, Cultural Studies and Social Thought in Education, Washington State University This timely book offers up important insights, distinctions, and analyses for the theory and practice for animal liberation, but also for social movements in general. Anyone serious about radical social change should read and discuss this book. It will improve your push for a better world! -Jason Del Gandio, Author, Rhetoric for Radicals: A Handbook for 21st Century Activists This important book affords animal liberation scholars and activists an opportunity to move beyond traditional liberal conceptions of animal rights theory and practice. Readers will learn how 'radical' and 'radicalism' are not dirty words, but rather essential means through which to achieve the total liberation of species. It should be considered an essential reading in critical animal studies. -S. Marek Muller, Florida Atlantic University; Author, Impersonating Animals: Rhetoric, Ecofeminism, and Animal Rights Law Radical Animal Studies: Beyond Respectability Politics, Opportunism, and Cooptation continues radical pedagogy that exceeds like no other. The book seeped in all genres of liberation is needed in classrooms to help student and teacher activists create needed change outside the classroom. -Lucas Alan, Researcher, Dietsche-University of Wisconsin-Platteville Radical Animal Studies: Beyond Respectability Politics, Opportunism, and Cooptation takes the time to reflect on the personal stories of this liberation movement. Without these reflections and stories we end up glossing over and ignoring the pain, the anger, and potentially the most important part, being able to truly see each other in this struggle. -Jason Bayless, Author, A Radical Guide, www.radical-guide.com Radical Animal Studies: Beyond Respectability Politics, Opportunism, and Cooptation is an amazing scholarly book that puts everything in perspective. I would recommend this book to anyone trying to grasp why animal rights are so important and the protection of them so paramount; this is a must read for anyone interested in social justice, animal advocacy, and total liberation. -Alisha Page, Director, Save the Kids
