Stone examines the changing status of animals, increased meat consumption, the nation-state''s role in animal protection, and the emergence of non-governmental organizations dedicated to animal protection. This work emphasizes that animal protection and increased meat consumption occur with the expansion of world-level culture and that culture''s ideology of progress. This world culture defines animal protection, including the alleviation of pain and suffering, as a necessary value and a goal of a progressive culture and its citizens. Yet, this same culture defines meat consumption, which is perceived as a dietary necessity and indicative of socio-economic development, as another characteristic of a progressive culture and its citizens. While this work examines the dual consumption and protection of animals, Stone also directs attention toward the human population growth and patterns of food production, distribution, and consumption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 1 Introduction Chapter 2 Population, Consumption, and Protection 5 Chapter 3 Population and Food Chapter 4 Patterns of Food Production, Distribution, and Consumption Chapter 5 Emergence of Animal Protection Chapter 6 Understanding Meat Consumption and Animal Protection Chapter 7 Animal Protection and the Ideology of Progress 16 Chapter 8 Before Animal Protection Chapter 9 Changes in the Moral Status of Animals Chapter 10 The Context of Public Perception Chapter 11 The Idea of Progress Chapter 12 Increased Meat Consumption and the Ideology of Progress 36 Chapter 13 Eating Meat Chapter 14 Eating More Meat Chapter 15 Meat Consumption in the Twentieth Century Chapter 16 Explaining Increases Chapter 17 Meat Consumption and Animal Protection Chapter 18 Animal Protection and the Nation-State 52 Chapter 19 Early Regulation of Animal Slaughter Chapter 20 Early Animal Protection Chapter 21 Animal Protection in the Twentieth Century Chapter 22 Animal Protection and Non- Governmental Organizations 79 Chapter 23 Defining NGOs Chapter 24 Culture and NGOs Chapter 25 Animal Protection and NGOs Part 26 Conclusion: The Rise of Protection and Decline of Consumption 96 Chapter 27 Animal Protection as a Characteristic of Progress Chapter 28 Meat Consumption as a Characteristic of Progress Chapter 29 Animal Protection and World Culture Part 30 References Part 31 Index","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037804953943,"sku":"9780761836087","price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761836087.jpg?v=1750937407","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-ideology-of-progress-world-culture-and-animal-protection-9780761836087","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
