Hi,
my name is Troy Vettese and I'm an environmental historian based at the European University Institute in Florence. I'm looking to organize a panel or two on animals for the upcoming conference for Historical Materialism at London this November:
https://www.historicalmaterialism.org/conferences/twentieth-annual-conference
Papers could be on a variety of topics, including:
- the Frankfurt School's approach to animals
- GMOs
- toxic masculinity, class privilege, and meat consumption
- animal rights and the left
- utopian socialists and vegetarianism
- socialist ecology
- socialist rewilding
- factory farming
- vivisecti
