Terrorists
or Freedom Fighters?: Reflections on the Liberation of Animals
(co-edited by Steven Best and Anthony J.
Nocella II) is a comprehensive overview of the history, ethics, politics, and
tactics of the Animal Liberation Front and direct action movements for animal
liberation. This volume features both academic and activist perspectives and offers
powerful insights into the ALF and its position within the animal rights movement.
Calling on sources as venerable as Thomas Aquinas and as current as the Patriot
Act -- and, in some cases, personal experience --the contributors explore the
history of civil disobedience and sabotage, and examine the philosophical and
cultural meanings of words like "terrorism," "democracy" and
"freedom." This is a provocative book that challenges the values and
assumptions that pervade our culture. Contributors include Steven Best, Rod Coronado,
Karen Davis, Bruce Friedrich, Kevin Jonas, pattrice jones, Ingrid Newkirk, Tom
Regan, Paul Watson, Robin Webb, Gary Yourofsky, and many others with a forward
by Ward Churchill.
