The Routledge Handbook of Vegan Studies (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Wright, Laura

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume explores the tension between the dietary practice of veganism and the manifestation, construction, and representation of a vegan identity in today's society. The sections contextualize veganism beyond its status as a dietary choice, situating veganism within broader social, ethical, legal, theoretical, and artistic discourses.
