The Familiar Animal Today: The Reduction of the Domestic to the Tamed

The Familiar Animal Today: The Reduction of the Domestic to the Tamed - 2011.
10
Human/animals relations nowadays are far away from what they were before. Previously the animal world was located relatively to humans broadly thanks to farm animals which were endorsing a central role of mediation. Because of the withdrawing of farm animals the relation has become deeply contradictory, digging a gap between wild and close animals. Therefore tamed animals were put at the first place and got new functions in families, even contributing in shaping their unity mainly thanks to the affective stream they could resettle. But, on a wider scale, the problem now is the lack of consistency for the relation in general between men and animals. Globally it is far from certain then that the unbalance of this relation could not have consequences for human life.
