摘要

动物活动家有时会将守夜和见证行为作为政治抗议的形式。例如,全球活动家网络 "拯救动物运动 "将见证非人类动物的痛苦视为素食主义的道德义务。见证行为旨在以非暴力的方式传达态度和原则。这些形式的行动主义与其他形式的抗议不同,其力量主要依靠被动的、非对抗性的行动。本文探讨了守夜和见证的伦理特性,以评估它们在动物权利活动中的作用。文章认为,"拯救动物运动 "的见证形式背后以爱为基础的伦理要求过高,过于宽泛,对不法行为者过于恭顺。取而代之的是,本文对见证进行了更狭义的阐述,摒弃了有争议的精神因素。文章称,守夜和有意识的见证行为是一种政治行为,旨在履行为非人类动物伸张正义的职责。

Bearing witness, animal rights and the slaughterhouse vigil
Animal activists sometimes engage in vigils and acts of witnessing as forms of political protest. For example, the Animal Save Movement, a global activist network, regards witnessing the suffering of non-human animals as a moral duty of veganism. The act of witnessing is intended to non-violently communicate both attitudes and principles. These forms of activism are unlike other forms of protest, relying for much of their force upon passive, non-confrontational actions. This article explores the ethical character of vigils and witnessing in order to evaluate their role in animal rights activism. It argues that the love-based ethic behind the Animal Save Movement's form of witnessing is overly demanding, overly expansive and overly deferential towards wrongdoers. In its place, this article offers a narrower account of witnessing, detached from controversial spiritual elements. Vigils and conscious acts of witnessing, it is claimed, are political acts aimed at fulfilling duties to seek justice for non-human animals.

期刊介绍: The European Journal of Political Theory provides a high profile research forum. Broad in scope and international in readership, the Journal is named after its geographical location, but is committed to advancing original debates in political theory in the widest possible sense--geographical, historical, and ideological. The Journal publishes contributions in analytic political philosophy, political theory, comparative political thought, and the history of ideas of any tradition. Work that challenges orthodoxies and disrupts entrenched debates is particularly encouraged. All research articles are subject to triple-blind peer-review by internationally renowned scholars in order to ensure the highest standards of quality and impartiality.
