Veganarchism or vegan anarchism, is the political philosophy of veganism (more specifically animal rights and earth liberation) and anarchism,〔Alberwite, Jonny. (Veganism if for the Common Good of All Life'' ), letter published in Animal Liberation Front Supporters Group Newsletter April 2009, p7-8.〕〔Veganarchy.net. (Issue 1'' ), July 2009.〕 creating a combined praxis that is designed to be a means for social revolution.〔〔 This encompasses viewing the state and capitalism, as well as hierarchical structures in general, as unnecessary and harmful to animals, both human and non-human, whilst practising a vegan lifestyle. It is either perceived as a combined theory, or that both philosophies are essentially the same.〔Dominick, Brian. ''Animal Liberation and Social Revolution: A vegan perspective on anarchism or an anarchist perspective on veganism'', third edition, Firestarter Press, 1997, inside page.〕 It is further described as an anti-speciesist perspective on green anarchism, or an anarchist perspective on animal liberation.〔 Veganarchists typically view oppressive dynamics within society to be interconnected, from statism, racism and sexism to human supremacy〔 and redefine veganism as a radical philosophy that sees the state as harmful to animals.〔 Ideologically, it is a ''human, animal, and Earth liberation'' movement that is fought as part of the same struggle. Those who believe in veganarchy can be either against reform for animals or for it, although do not limit goals to changes within the law.〔Dominick, Brian. ''Animal Liberation and Social Revolution: A vegan perspective on anarchism or an anarchist perspective on veganism'', third edition, Firestarter Press, 1997, page 8.〕〔 The philosophy was first popularised by Brian A. Dominick in ''Animal Liberation and Social Revolution''〔 and later promoted by anarcho-punk band ''Virus'' using symbolism, Roots of Compassion, a zine named 'veganarchy', and animal rights activist Jonny Albewhite.〔〔〔Roots of compassion. (- unisex t-shirt'' ), 2009.〕 The ideology is sometimes referred to as radical veganism, total liberation, or total revolution; however, not all who believe in the terms perceive them to be veganarchy.〔〔Dominick, Brian. ''Animal Liberation and Social Revolution: A vegan perspective on anarchism or an anarchist perspective on veganism'', third edition, Firestarter Press, 1997, page 9.〕 == Terms == *Anarchism is a political philosophy encompassing theories and attitudes which consider the state, as compulsory government, to be unnecessary, harmful, and/or undesirable.〔 *Errico Malatesta, "(Towards Anarchism )", ''MAN!''.
