Beyond Animal Rights: A Feminist Caring Ethic for the Treatment of Animals
Donovan 与 Adams 合编的开创性论文集，首次系统提出以女性主义关怀伦理取代权利论和功利主义作为动物伦理的基础——自然权利学说和功利主义都带有男性偏见（规则优先于关系）。 Donovan and Adams's pioneering essay collection, the first to systematically propose feminist care ethics as an alternative foundation to rights theory and utilitarianism in animal ethics — arguing both carry a masculine bias (rules over relationships).
Beyond Animal Rights (Continuum, 1996) is the foundational text of the feminist care ethics tradition in animal ethics. Eight essays argue that natural rights doctrine and utilitarianism carry a masculine bias — prioritizing abstract rules and rational calculation over embodied relationships and emotional responsiveness. The collection proposes care as the ethical basis for the treatment of animals, laying the groundwork later expanded in The Feminist Care Tradition in Animal Ethics (Columbia UP, 2007).
