Details

This volume explores the intersection of animal protection and economic law within the European Union, offering a bold new framework for safeguarding sentient beings. Despite decades of EU legislation and constitutional recognition of animal sentience, industrial farming, wildlife trade, and animal-based research continue to thrive under economic pressures. Through contributions from leading scholars and practitioners, the book reveals how economic law-spanning corporate, trade, competition, procurement, and consumer law-can be reimagined to prioritize animal welfare.
