Bob Torres 从社会无政府主义和马克思主义出发,分析动物如何作为「被锁链锁住的商品」被纳入资本主义的剥削结构——你无法在资本主义框架内购买革命。 Bob Torres draws on social anarchism and Marxism to analyze how animals function as 'chained commodities' within capitalist exploitation — you cannot buy the revolution within a capitalist framework.
Making a Killing (AK Press, 2007) examines animal rights from a social anarchist position, combining Marxist political economy with an assessment of the animal rights movement. Torres argues that animal exploitation is structurally embedded in capitalism through property relations and commodity logic, and that consumer-based activism alone cannot dismantle it.
