Produktbeskrivning

“Peter J. Li’s pathbreaking new book, Animal Welfare in China, is timely and valuable.” ANTHROZOÖS

The plight of animals in China has attracted intense interest in recent times. Speculation about the origins of COVID-19 has sparked curiosity about how animals are treated, traded and consumed in China today.

In Animal Welfare in China, Peter Li explores the key animal welfare challenges facing China now, including animal agriculture, bear farming, and the trade and consumption of exotic wildlife, dog meat, and other controversial products.

He considers how Chinese policymakers have approached these issues and speaks with activists from China’s growing animal rights movement.

Li also offers an overview of the history of animal welfare in China, from ancient times through the enormous changes of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Some practices that are today described as “traditional”, he argues, are in fact quite recent developments, reflecting the contemporary pursuit of economic growth rather than long-standing cultural traditions.

Based on years of fieldwork and analysis, Animal Welfare in China makes a compelling case for a more nuanced and evidence-based approach to these complex issues.

Praise for Animal Welfare in China

‘Peter Li has authored a thorough and thoughtful review of the historical and cultural factors that have shaped China’s attitudes toward nonhuman animals.

He further demonstrates how modern economic pressures and government policies have dramatically shifted that country’s priorities to the detriment of wildlife, farmed animals, and many others used for human means. This book is a vital read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the causes and potential solutions to “the welfare challenges currently affecting the world’s largest population of nonhuman animals”.’

– Chris Green, Executive Director, Harvard Animal Law & Policy Program
