书目名称 | Zoos | 副标题 | A Philosophical Tour | 编辑 | Keekok Lee | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | In this book, Keekok Lee asks the question, ‘what is an animal, and how does our treatment of it within captivity affect its status as a being ?‘ This ontological treatment marks the first such approach in looking at animals in captivity. Engaging with the moral questions of zoo-keeping (is it morally justified to keep a wild animal in captivity?) as well as the ontological (what is it that we conserve in zoos after all? A wild animal or its shadow?), Lee develops her own original hypothesis, centred around the concept of ‘immuration‘ - defining this in contrast to domestication - and thereby provides a unique addition to the growing body of work on animal ethics. | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | 关键词 | animals; ethics; evolution; lifestyle; philosophy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9780230503809 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-54071-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-230-50380-9 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited 2005 |
