This episode's guest is Dr Meera Inglis of the Department of International Relations, Politics and History at Loughborough University in the UK. Meera's research concerns animal and environmental ethics, including conservation, climate change, and environmental justice. We discuss her 2020 article 'Wildlife Ethics and Practice: Why We Need to Change the Way We Talk About "Invasive Species"', which was published open access in the Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics.
This episode is brought to you by the Animal Politics series at Sydney University Press.
During the conversation, Meera mentions Banu Subramaniam's 'The Aliens Have Landed! Reflections on the Rhetoric of Biological Invasions' (https://www.jstor.org/stable/40338794) and Ken Thompson's book Where Do Camels Belong? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Where_Do_Camels_Belong%3F).
In her answers to the regular questions, she mentions Peter Singer's widely anthologized paper 'All Animals are Equal' (https://soar.suny.edu/entities/publication/09c33aea-21ab-47f1-949d-3a820b42f93c), Gerald Durrell's semi-autobiographical book My Family and Other Animals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Family_and_Other_Animals), her own popular piece 'Chimps and gorillas desperately need Ebola vaccine too' (https://theconversation.com/chimps-and-gorillas-desperately-need-ebola-vaccine-too-virus-has-wiped-out-a-third-of-them-35503), and the work of James Rachels, especially his Created from Animals (https://global.oup.com/academic/product/created-from-animals-9780192861290).
