 Recent years have witnessed a political turn in animal ethics, with the appearance of several theories that discuss how political institutions and processes can be transformed to guarantee justice for animals (Cochrane, Garner, &amp; O’Sullivan 2018). This work is somewhat less capacity-oriented than traditional animal ethics, since it does not focus on the moral obligations of individual humans towards animals, and tends to highlight instead the sorts of obligations that are generated at the state level by the relationships that humans have historically held with animals (Donaldson &amp; Kymlicka 2011).
