Abstract

The text reviews the book Glossary of animal(ist) resistance, which provides Critical Animal Studies (CAS) with a space to gather elements that allow for mapping and reconfiguring the speciesist order. This book offers tools to question institutionalized knowledge and foster new ethical-political conceptions. Through exercises of resignification, it reveals that the current situation is an induced, complex, and artificial order. The glossary emphasizes the importance of redefining relationships between concepts to challenge established hierarchies and promote animal resistance.
