Rezensionen
»Der Band [liefert] interessante Einsichten in das Zusammenwirken von Menschen und Tieren in vielfältigsten Arbeitskontexten. Die Sichtbarmachung dieser empirischen Situationen ist ein besonderes Verdienst.« Juri Auderset, traverse, 2 (2021) »Sehr wichtige Denkanstöße für die weitere Debatte.« Mieke Roscher, Neue Politische Literatur, 65 (2020) »'Animal Labor' provides a more sophisticated defense of employment of animals than anything I have found in the Anglo-American world.« Boria Sax, Humanimalia, Herbst 2020 »Außergewöhnlicher, aber nötiger Einblick in die Mensch-Tier-Beziehung.« Jens Schäfer, Ox - Kochen ohne Knochen, 39/2 (2020) »At a time when more-than-human ontologies are on many disciplines agendas, »Animal Labor« is a thought-provoking volume that forges a path for a reconceptualization of human-animal interrelations and demonstrates that analyzing working animals is also one way to learn about ourselves as humans.« Hélène B. Ducros, www.europenowjournal.org, 28.02.2020 »In den einzelnen Fallstudien werden [...] interessante und teils neue Perspektiven auf das Mensch-Tier-Verhältnis im Arbeitskontext, aber auch auf Arbeit im Allgemeinen entwickelt und diskutiert.« Ulrike Schwerdtner, http://tierbefreiungsarchiv.de, 3 (2020)
