From Common Humanity to Sentient Commonality
This article critically examines French pragmatic sociology and how it can operate as an analytical framework for understanding human–animal relations. While pragmatic sociology specifically accounts for nonhuman elements, it grounds its approach in the notion of common humanity, which excludes nonhuman animals. After identifying this tension, the article contrasts common humanity to the critique animal rights theorizing has directed at such huma…
Supervising Veterinarians as Boundary-Spanning Agents
Boundary-spanning agency is important for weaving together different ways of doing and knowing. This article examines boundary-spanning agency in the context of courtroom contestation of veterinary expertise. Analysing Finnish supreme administrative court judgments, we highlight how knowledge claims about animal welfare and about the process of supervisory inspections are deployed and contested by both veterinarians and animal owners in a bid to …

Epistemic struggles in legislating animal welfare in Finland
This article examines how the interests of farm animals were constructed as being part of the public interest in the drafting of Finland's new Animal Welfare Act (693/2023). While the public interest typically refers to the well‐being of the entire political community, traditionally centred around human concerns, animal welfare legislation suggests that animal interests may also be included in some way. In this study, we analysed stakeholder stat…
Climate Moralities Offset
This article contributes to sociological scholarship on climate change by examining the development of the voluntary carbon offset market in Finland. While intended to address the collective challenge of climate change, voluntary carbon offsetting has faced criticism for commodifying emissions and shifting responsibility to specific actors. Enabled by voluntary carbon markets, emissions and climate impacts are attributed to companies and individu…
Differentiating natures, connecting environments pragmatic sociology and the emergence of green justifications
As the environmental crisis gains pace, different strands of posthumanist theorizing have aimed to reshape the ecological conditions of human actions. This article examines ecological justifications in French pragmatic sociology, developed by Boltanski and Thévenot, situating it to discussions about materiality. The approach has proven useful for analyzing various controversies as it provides tools for examining how actors coordinate conflict sit…

Making a difference. Constructing relations between organic and conventional agriculture in Finland in the emergence of organic agriculture
This article analyses debates on the difference between organic and conventional agriculture. Departing from earlier accounts on the subject, it is argued that rather than conceptualising the subject as a case of diminishing differences, research should also focus on examining the making of these differences. This latter approach is connected to the notion that organic agriculture, understood as an alternative to conventional forms of agriculture…
Up with ecology, down with economy? The consolidation of the idea of climate change mitigation in the global public sphere
Building on theories of valuation and evaluation, we develop an analytical framework that outlines six elements of the process of consolidation of an idea in the public sphere. We then use the framework to analyse the process of consolidation of the idea of climate change mitigation between 1997 and 2013, focusing on the interplay between ecological and economic evaluations. Our content analysis of 1274 articles in leading newspapers in five coun…
