Are you an academic author?
This special issue builds on an emergent body of scholarship located at the intersection of critical disability studies & critical animal studies, shedding light on ableism and speciesism as interconnecting oppressions, the ways in which animality and disability are mutually constitutive, as well as the tensions and coalitions shared by these two related fields.
We invite papers making theoretical and/or empirical contribution(s) to our understanding of disabled/non-disabled human-nonhuman animal relations, species interaction, and intersectionalities.
Submissions due by June 1, 2018.
