Abstract

There are intellectuals who, through their contributions to studies, their pioneering work and their own personality, have identified the efforts of a whole generation of scholars. This is the case of Steven Wise (1950-2024). Steven Wise saw the possibility of turning animal studies on its head, both theoretically and practically, and he did it successfully. In this volume, we help to keep his legacy alive by remembering his work and projects for the recognition of non-human animal rights.
