Book •
Sue Donaldson and Will Kymlicka's "Zoopolis" offers a groundbreaking framework for understanding animal citizenship and rights.

The book challenges traditional views of human-animal relationships, proposing a political theory that recognizes the diverse ways animals participate in human societies.

Donaldson and Kymlicka introduce the concept of "liminal animals," those who live in close proximity to humans but are not fully domesticated.

They argue for a more nuanced approach to animal rights, acknowledging the varying degrees of integration and dependence between humans and animals.

The book's innovative approach has significantly influenced discussions on animal welfare and ethical considerations in human-animal interactions.
