Description:	Leading philosophers Alice Crary and Lori GruenÂ offer a searing and desperately needed response to systemsÂ of thought and actionÂ that are failing animals and, ultimately, humans too.Â In the wake of global pandemics, mass extinctions, habitat destruction, and catastrophic climate change, they issue a clarion call to address the intertwined problems weÂ face, arguing that weÂ must radically reimagineÂ our relationships with other animals. In stark contrast to traditional theories in animal ethics, which abstract from social mechanisms harmful to human beings,Â Animal CrisisÂ makes the case that there can be no animal liberation without human emancipation. Borrowing from critical theories such as ecofeminism, Crary and Gruen present aÂ critical animal theoryÂ for understanding and combating the structural forces that enable the diminishment of so many to the advantage of a few. With seven case studiesÂ of complex human-animal relations, they make an urgent plea to dismantle theÂ â€œhuman supremacismâ€ that is devastating animal lives and hurtling us toward ecocide.
