Routledge Handbook of Rewilding

Routledge Handbook of Rewilding

This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the history theory and current practices of rewilding. Rewilding offers a transformational paradigm shift in conservation thinking and as such is increasingly of interest to academics policymakers and practitioners. However as a rapidly emerging area of conservation the term has often been defined and used in a variety of different ways (both temporally and spatially). There is therefore the need for a comprehensive assessment of this field and the Routledge Handbook of Rewilding fills this lacuna. The handbook is organised into four sections to reflect key areas of rewilding theory practice and debate: the evolution of rewilding theoretical and practical underpinnings applications and impacts and the ethics and philosophy of rewilding. Drawing on a range of international case studies the handbook addresses many of the key issues including land acquisition and longer-term planning transitioning from restoration (human-led nature enabled) to rewilding (nature-led human enabled) and the role of political and social transformational change. Led by an editorial team who have extensive experience researching and practising rewilding this handbook is essential reading for students academics and practitioners interested in rewilding ecological restoration natural resource management and conservation.

The Pentecostal World

The Pentecostal World

The Pentecostal World provides a comprehensive and critical introduction to one of the most vibrant and diverse expressions of contemporary Christianity. Unlike many books on Pentecostalism this collection of essays from all continents does not attempt to synthesize and simplify the movement’s inherent diversity and fragmented dispersion. Instead the global flows of Pentecostalism are firmly grounded in local histories and expressions as well as the various modes of their worldwide reproduction. The book thus argues for a new understanding of Pentecostal and Charismatic movements that accounts for the simultaneous processes of pluralization and homogenization in contemporary World Christianity. Written by a distinguished team of international contributors across various disciplines the volume is comprised of six parts with each offering a critical perspective on classical themes in the study of Pentecostalism. Led by a programmatic introduction the thirty-six chapters within these parts explore a variety of themes: history and historiography conversion spirit beliefs and exorcism prosperity politics gender relations sexual identities racism development migration pilgrimage interreligious relations media ecumenism and academic research. The Pentecostal World is essential reading for students and researchers in anthropology history political science religious studies sociology and theology. The book will also be very useful for those in related fields such as culture studies black studies ethnic studies and gender studies.

Routledge Handbook of Animal Welfare

Routledge Handbook of Animal Welfare

This handbook presents a much-needed and comprehensive exploration of the rapidly growing fields of animal welfare and law. In recent years there has been increasing attention paid to our complex multifaceted relationships with other animals and in particular the depth and breadth of various societal uses of animals. This has led to a reconsideration of their moral and social status which has sometimes challenged the interests of those who use animals. In such a contested domain sound evidence and reasoning become particularly important. Through firm commitment to such principles this book explores the biological foundations for the moral consideration of animals and for evolving conceptualisations of animal welfare. It reviews in detail the welfare concerns associated with numerous forms of animal use. The inclusion of key recent developments such as climate change pandemics and antimicrobial resistance ensures this text is among the most current in its field. The ethical implications of the various uses of animals by society are considered and chapters provide important recommendations for reforms of practice law or policy. The status of animal law internationally and in major world regions is reviewed. Finally the book considers human behavioural change and strategies for improving stakeholder communication and education. The handbook is essential reading for students and scholars of animal welfare animal law and animal ethics everywhere and for policy-makers and other professionals working in the animal welfare sector. | Routledge Handbook of Animal Welfare
