Fur Factory Farming
Readers of this journal will be very familiar with the Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series. This review article focuses on its latest fine installment, An Ethical Critique of Fur Factory Farming. Cognizant that its authors Andrew Linzey and Clair Linzey are the series editors, as well this journal's editors, and feeling confident that they will correct me if I misconstrue any part of their argument, here I elucidate that argument and situate …
Someday, I'll be an ancestor
Intergenerational connectedness broadly encompasses relations among humans, lands, and all living and spiritual beings, and functions as an important part of Indigenous well‐being. Many public health campaigns and interventions aim to promote connectedness to support holistic wellness and reduce health inequities. Currently, however, there are no measurement tools to assess intergenerational connectedness to support culturally grounded research a…
Denise Réaume and the Women’s Court of Canada
When Denise Réaume rewrote the Supreme Court of Canada’s 1999 decision Law v Canada, it would have been difficult to predict that its umbrella project, the Women’s Court of Canada (WCC), would give birth to such a successful and truly international legal academic movement, what has come to be known as the Feminist Judgment Projects (FJPs). These projects – rewriting cases thought to be wrongly decided or better decided on different grounds and sp…
Anthropomorphizing Animals
This paper uses a selection of foxhunting stories to explore the way in which anthropomorphized foxes were used to communicate pro-hunting messages to their mostly young readers. These justifications also appeared in nonfictional foxhunting sporting literature. Indeed, this literature included some of the same incredible anecdotes that also appeared in the work of nature writers at the turn of the twentieth century such as Charles G.D. Roberts an…
Genuine Concern for Animals in England's Nineteenth-Century Animal Protection Movement
Animal–human history is an increasingly popular area of historical research. 1 Diana Donald's 2020 book, Women Against Cruelty: Protection of Animals in Nineteenth-Century Britain is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of animal protection and the role women have played in moral reform movements. Starting from the premise that the prevention of cruelty to animals is “a pure product of the nineteenth century” (p. 7), this dazzling boo…
The “Bundle” or “Cluster” Theory of Legal Personhood in Its Active and Passive “Incidents”
In this article, I review A Theory of Legal Personhood, explaining what I see as its key contributions to animal law scholarship, while situating it against wider jurisprudential contributions that may be of interest to philosophers and legal scholars grappling with the oft-thorny idea of legal personhood, not just for nonhuman animals but for corporations, artificially intelligent machines, and late-term fetuses. The article will explain Kurki's…
Beyond Cages
Justin Marceau's book Beyond Cages: Animal Law and Criminal Punishment shines a light on three very serious problems in the U.S. animal protection movement brought on by its connections to the criminal justice system: (a) implicit racism baked into the race neutral or color-blind position the movement takes; (b) reliance on faulty “link” research used to justify harsher sentences for individuals who harm animals; and (c) having accepted in the 20…
Introduction
In 2021, Anna Lvovsky published Vice Patrol: Cops, Courts, and the Struggle over Urban Gay Life Before Stonewall with the University of Chicago Press. The book studies gay communities’ confrontations with criminal law in the mid-twentieth-century United States. Lvovsky, a professor of law and affiliate professor of history at Harvard University, pays particularly close attention to law enforcement practices that aimed to police homosexuality, as …
EHealth and mHealth Development in Spain
In the last decades, the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has progressively spread to society and public administration. Health is one of the areas in which the use of ICTs has more intensively developed through what is now known as eHealth. That area has recently included mHealth. Spanish health system has stood out as one of the benchmarks of this technological revolution. The development of ICTs applied to health, espec…
Indigenous perspectives for strengthening social responses to global environmental changes
The "Grand Challenges for Social Work," is a call to action for innovative responses to society's most pressing social problems. In this article, we respond to the "Grand Challenge" of Creating Social Responses to a Changing Environment from our perspective as Indigenous scholars. Over the last several decades, diminishing natural resources, pollution, over-consumption, and the exploitation of the natural environment have led to climate change ev…
American Treatise Writers and the Nineteenth-Century Debate on Marriage with a Deceased Wife’s Sister in Transatlantic Context
The question whether a man could marry the sister of his deceased wife (or whether a woman could marry the brother of her deceased husband) sounds quaint to modern ears. Was this really ever thought to be incest? Yes, it was considered incest by affinity, that is, as a result of a relationship between the parties having been created by marriage, as opposed to incest by consanguinity caused by a blood relationship. Incest by affinity had been proh…
Fuzzy Rules and Clear Enough Standards
Pierson v Post, the famous fox case, has come to be understood by law and economics scholars as a parsed down lesson about rules versus standards, specifically the superiority of the clear capture rule over the allegedly fuzzy standard of hot pursuit articulated by Justice Livingston in his dissent. This article argues first, that the case actually does not illustrate very well the superiority of rules over standards. And second, that, even if it…
Future(s) of American Legal History
Critical Legal History (CLH) is currently being subjected to sustained critique and re-examination by some legal historians. This review essay looks at this debate in the context of two recent books on American legal history: Christopher Tomlins’s Freedom Bound: Law, Labor, and Civic Identity in Colonizing English America, 1580–1865 (2010) and Laura Edwards’s The People and Their Peace: Legal Culture and the Transformation of Inequality in the Po…
Pierson v. Post
Pierson v. Post (1805) has long puzzled legal teachers and scholars. This article argues that the appellate report was the product of the intellectual interests (and schooling) of the lawyers and judges involved in the case. They converted a minor dispute about a fox into a major argument in order to argue from Roman and other civil law sources on how to establish possession in wild animals, effectively crafting an opportunity to create new law f…
The Lost Record of Pierson v. Post , the Famous Fox Case
Pierson v. Post is usually used in law school classrooms to introduce law students to the complexities of establishing possession in property law. The published appellate-level opinion is widely available from commercial judgment database services and has been reproduced in countless law school casebooks, with a first-page pride of place given to the case in such collections since at least 1915. In the words of one scholar, “[m[ost [property law]…
An Object Lesson in Speculation
Leaf v. International Galleries is an English case dealing with the doctrine of innocent misrepresentation in contract law. Mr Leaf bought an oil painting of Salisbury Cathedral from International Galleries in 1944 for £85 on the representation that it was an authentic picture by the famous English painter John Constable. When he tried to sell it five years later to Christie's auction house, he was told that it was not in fact a Constable. Intern…
Record-Keeping and Other Troublemaking
Historians have long discussed the different ways in which the first professional lawyer to practice in Massachusetts Bay Colony, Thomas Lechford, was at odds with colony authorities in his three-year stay there—from June 27, 1638 to August 3, 1641. Some accounts have focused on his religious views, since Lechford disagreed with the strict forms of church membership prescribed by the colony's religion, Congregationalism. When he returned to Engla…
