Fighting for animal liberation and an end to speciesism
The Moral Basis of Vegetarianism
Written by Professor Tom Regan
Professor Tom Regan, often referred to as the philosophical leader of the animal rights movement, and recognised as one of fifty visionaries who are changing the world (Utne Reader), wrote this journal article for the Canadian Journal of Philosophy in 1975. This was the first piece Tom ever wrote on ethics and other animals, and was the first peer reviewed philosophy journal article ever written on the topic of vegetarianism.
Professor Regan doesn't always receive the credit he deserves for his tireless work on behalf of both humans and other animals, and for being one of the first people to ever speak about abolitionist theory in terms of animal rights. We hope to change that in ARZone and plan on providing more of the history of *your* movement for a greater understanding of the advocates and activists who were the real pioneers in the animal rights movement.
