International geographers and cultural analysts on veganism as a conceptual and physical space

Veganism as an ethics and practice has a recorded history dating back to antiquity. Yet, only recently have researchers begun formalising the study of veganism. Although occasional publications have recently emerged from sociology, history, philosophy, cultural studies, or critical animal studies, a comprehensive geographical analysis is still missing. From a diverse group of scholars and living practitioners, Vegan Geographies looks across space and scale, exploring the appropriateness of vegan ethics among diverse social and cultural groups and within the midst of broader neoliberal economic and political frameworks that seek to commodify and marketise the movement.

Vegan Geographies fundamentally challenges outdated but still dominant human-nature dualisms that underpin widespread suffering and ecological degradation. It provides practical and accessible pathways for people interested in challenging contemporary systems and working collectively toward less destructive worlds.
