The staggering rate of environmental pollution and animal abuse despite constant efforts to educate the public and raise awareness challenges the prevailing belief that the absence of serious action is a consequence of a poorly informed public. In recent decades alternative explanations of social and political inaction have emerged, including denialism. Challenging the information-deficit model, denialism proposes that people actively avoid unpleasant information that threatens their established worldviews, lifestyles, and identities. Environmental and Animal Abuse Denial: Averting Our Gaze analyzes how people avoid awareness of climate change, environmental pollution, animal abuse, and the animal industrial complex. The contributors examine the theory of denialism in regards to environmental pollution and animal abuse through a range of disciplines, including social psychology, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and law.

Environmental and Animal Abuse Denial: Averting Our Gaze is a timely contribution to the growing discussion of denialism in the context of animal exploitation and the global destruction of nature – the rage of inhumanity. Its interdisciplinary essays encourage readers to deconstruct taken-for-granted assumptions, practices and structures, and move toward a more compassionate and just world.
