The Ethics and Rhetoric of Invasion Ecology
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-4985-3832-9 (ISBN)
The Ethics and Rhetoric of Invasion Ecology provides an introduction to the controversial treatment and ongoing violence routinely utilized against non-native species. Drawing from the tradition of critical animal scholars, Stanescu and Cummings have assembled a group of advocates who argue for a different kind of relationship with foreign species. Where contemporary approaches often emphasize the need to eradicate ecological invaders in order to preserve delicate habitats, the essays in this volume aim to reformulate the debate by arguing for an alternative approach that advances the possibility of an ethics of co-habitation.
James K. Stanescu is professorial lecturer of philosophy at American University Kevin Cummings is professor and chair of the Department of Communication Studies at Mercer University
