Abstract

Globalization has exacerbated speciesism both socially and economically. Veganism and its

subsequent labeling schemes have arisen as an important political site of resistance to

growing non-human animal inequality. This paper explores globalization‘s impact on nonhuman animals, veganism and vegan labeling, as well as important divides within the modern

non-human animal rights movement in regards to utopian and pragmatic approaches to

alleviating growing speciesism.
