''An Introduction to Animals and Political Theory'' is a 2010 book by political theorist Alasdair Cochrane, published by Palgrave Macmillan as part of its Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series. It examines five schools of political theory—utilitarianism, liberalism, communitarianism, Marxism and feminism—and their relationship with the question of animal rights. Cochrane concludes that each tradition has something to offer, but ultimately presents his own account, based primarily on liberalism and utilitarianism. The book was reviewed in several academic publications and was received positively by the reviewers, including philosopher Steve Cooke and political theorist Robert Garner. Cooke said that Cochrane's own approach showed promise, but the book would have benefited from devoting more space to it; Garner praised Cochrane's synthesis of such a broad range of literature, but argued that the work was too uncritical of the concept of justice as it might apply to animals. Cochrane's account of interest-based rights for animals is considered at greater length in his 2012 book ''Animal Rights without Liberation''. ==Background== In the 1990s and 2000s Cochrane studied politics at the University of Sheffield and the London School of Economics (LSE), before becoming a fellow and lecturer at LSE. ''An Introduction to Animals and Political Theory'' was his first book,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.shef.ac.uk/politics/staff/alasdaircochrane )〕 though he had previously had articles published in ''Utilitas'' and ''Political Studies'' introducing his interest-based theory of animal rights.〔Cochrane 2009a; Cochrane 2009b.〕 Cochrane's article in ''Political Studies'' provoked responses from political theorist Robert Garner and philosopher John Hadley, published in 2011 and 2013 respectively.〔Garner 2011; Hadley 2013.〕 Garner subsequently acted as a discussant for Cochrane during the writing of ''An Introduction to Animals and Political Theory''.〔Cochrane 2010, p. viii.〕 The book was first published in the UK on 13 October 2010 by Palgrave Macmillan in paperback and hardback.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palgrave.com/products/title.aspx?pid=378824 )〕 It was the first book to appear as part of the Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series,〔Cochrane 2010, p. i.〕 a partnership between Palgrave Macmillan and the Ferrata Mora Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics. The series's general editors are Andrew Linzey and Priscilla N. Cohn.〔Cochrane 2010, pp. vi–vii.〕 The book was described by the Centre as "the first introductory level text to offer an accessible overview on the status of animals in contemporary political theory." It was one of the first works to link the question of animal rights to the concept of justice in political philosophy. Previous publications examining animals and theories of justice include works by Garner and Martha Nussbaum.〔Garner 2012, p. 98.〕〔Donaldson and Kymlicka, 2012, p. 1.〕〔Garner 2013, pp. 1, 169.〕
