The Animals & Society Institute is excited to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Society & Animals: Journal of Human-Animal Studies with all of our supporters.
As announced in the last issue, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the publication of Society & Animals, in partnership with Brill Publications we are making ten previously published articles available for a limited time in Open Access. Articles are selected that: (1) demonstrate the expansion of the field to an increasing number of interfacing disciplines, (2) suggest changes in policy and practice involving human-animal relationships, and/or (3) make important conceptual advances in the field.
Here is the second batch of articles the full texts of which are available for three months from the publication of this issue:
