TI  - Ethics and Commitment in a Militant Human Supremacy Group
PY  - 2010///.
							
N1  - 1
N2  - The article aims to give an ethnographic account of the ethics of an anti-speciesist Italian militant group. I define the ideology underpinning their activism as 'anti-humanistic anti-speciesism', since animal advocacy goes hand in hand with overt contempt for human beings. I classify the activities of the group into two different spheres: the sphere of ethics, defined in Max Weber's terms as an ideologically coherent lifestyle; and the sphere of morals, concerning—as in Emile Durkheim's vocabulary—the defense of the group from doctrinal and physical challenges. Finally, I claim that empirical research on ethical and moral phenomena is needed in order to improve our understanding of contemporary pluralistic societies
