Animal Oppression and Human Violence: Domesecration, Capitalism, and Global Conflict
社会学家 David Nibert 提出「domesecration」(驯亵)概念取代「domestication」(驯化),论证对动物的驯化是人类大规模暴力的前提条件——从游牧社会到殖民扩张到全球资本主义。 Sociologist David Nibert coins 'domesecration' to replace 'domestication,' arguing that the subjugation of animals is a precondition for large-scale human violence — from nomadic pastoralism to colonial expansion to global capitalism.
Animal Oppression and Human Violence (Columbia UP, 2013) traces the entangled history of animal domination and human oppression. Nibert argues that the “domesecration” of animals — controlled by elite groups and expanded through capitalism — has been a precondition for the oppression of human populations, particularly indigenous peoples. The book spans from the origins of pastoralism to the modern global livestock industry.
