Journal for Critical Animal Studies mentioned in The New York Times

In a recent New York Times article exploring the rise of the many manifestations of “animal studies” across campuses and universities nationwide, the Institute for Critical Animal Studies’ Journal for Critical Animal Studies was noted as being part of this important, growing movement in the academy. In particular, Karen L.F. Houle’s essay “Animal, Vegetable, Mineral: Ethics as Extension or Becoming? The Case of Becoming-Plant” (Volume IX, Issue 1/2, 2011) got special mention for “following in [the] word tracks” of Jacques Derrida.

2010 ICAS Review

by Anthony Nocella

The Institute for Critical Animal Studies (ICAS) is the only animal advocacy organization in the world dedicated to higher education and is also fully-volunteer. There are more than two hundred ICAS volunteers who are around the world from professors to undergraduate students. After anyone realizes we are fully-volunteer and on a zero dollar budget people are speechless. Please watch this video of ICAS Top Ten Achievements of 2010 and donate and volunteer to ICAS, as we wish 2011 to be a huge year for ICAS and for the field of critical animal studies. Please if you cannot donate to or volunteer with ICAS, please put on a critical animal studies event at your community center, college, or university.
