Drawing on abolitionist thought, critical animal studies, and intersectional feminist philosophy, Kelly Struthers Montford and Chloë Taylor interrogate the ethical and ontological assumptions underpinning prison animal programs. These programs—often celebrated for their rehabilitative effects—are critically examined as sites of disciplinary power, anthropocentric logic, and carceral normalization. The authors explore how relationships between incarcerated humans and animals are shaped by colonial histories, species hierarchies, and the biopolitics of captivity. The book challenges readers to rethink concepts of care, autonomy, and justice beyond the confines of the prison-industrial complex and envisions transformative justice alternatives that center the lived experiences and species-specific needs of all animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume offers a bold and original contribution to debates on abolition and the future of carceral reform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKelly Struthers Montford is Associate Professor of Criminology at Toronto Metropolitan University\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eChloë Taylor is Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of Alberta\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31 October 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032359179\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51458866380940,"sku":"9783032359179","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783032359179","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
