Excerpt

Inquiring into Animal Enhancement was published as a companion volume to Inquiring into Human Enhancement: Interdisciplinary and International Perspectives (and a contribution to a book series on Health, Technology, and Society). In seeking to address the notion of enhancing Other animals, the volume escapes aspects of the anthropocentric foci implicit in the series title. At the same time, some elements of the individual contributions are constrained by anthropocentric assumptions, and others reinforce normative notions about the value and positioning of humans and Other animals. …

The term “abolitionist,” as a descriptor for theory and practice regarding the animal question has been identified by a number of scholars and activists as problematic. It indicates a need to further engage in intersectional analysis and to address the western centrism (whiteness) of many fields.

Comstock’s use of “abolitionist” reflects Pearce’s (introduced by Ferrari) usage of the term. It also further illustrates the reductionist nature of the dualism he constructs in seeking to locate his ideas as comprising some form of middle ground.

See Cabrera Trujillo and Engel-Glatter (2015) for a (human-centred) discussion around human-animal chimera and early regulatory frameworks.
