A flyer for the European sociology association call for papers due January 30. Red flowers against a white background decorate the bottom of the flyer
A description of the call for papers for a vegan sociology stream of the European sociology association welcoming empirical, theoretical, and methodological contributions that include nonhuman animals and challenge their oppression, and explore veganism as a social phenomenon, in relation to activism, policy, consumption, identity, intersectionality, and other aspects. The stream welcomes dialogue across critical theory, social movement studies, environmental sociology and human animal studies.
