ANIMAL RIGHTS LITERATURE REVIEW 2
Introduction
Animal rights movement advocates for animal’s wellbeing, free from pain, cruelty and abuse as they are living beings and they have the right to live in liberty. Abuse of animals has become a major issue worldwide therefore becoming a problem that can be solved only through obtaining a clear comprehension of what the rights entail. Animal rights as a movement challenges the society’s old view that all animals only exist for human use like in experimentation and agriculture (Sunstein 388). Despite the comprehension of what animal rights entail, it is crucial for individuals to understand the potential causes of animal abuse. While those who display these practices of viciousness and disregard towards animals must be dissected and, if vital, liberatingly analyzed, they should likewise be considered responsible for their activities, which is done by specific laws and controls that endeavor to forestall animal cruelty. This way, the harmful effects of animal abuse is lessened and stopped.
Many individuals trust that animals do not have rights, and that the general populations who support animal rights are liberals who need to discover different channels for their persuasions while others feel it is our ethical commitment to nurture animals as they cannot act or talk for themselves. Protecting animals is, imperative for some reasons, including the help they provide for plant ecosystems, the emotional and psychological bolster they can offer to people, and the knowledge picked up from the sociological studies of them and therefore they have the right to experience their lives free from exploitation and misery. We as human beings however do take speciesism to extremes, making new species through farming and domestication, invading most climates and environments, and utilizing our intelligence to expand or sort term gains at the detriment of long-term sustainability. Animals have rights to live free of pain, abuse and suffering.
Literature Review
The fight against animal brutality, the advocacy of animal rights and the welfare of animals has occurred to some degree over the span of history. It's vital to comprehend that owning animals as property to be eaten or killed is the defining core of our consciousness, and that every human being is routinely indoctrinated into the attitude of control, reductionism, avoidance, elitism, and disconnectedness required by the sustenance practices of our culture (Cochrane 37). This review discusses the existing literature in regard to animal rights. The section contains history, terminology and the pros and cons of the controversies involved in animal rights.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. INTRODUCTION
Animal rights is the idea in
which some, or all, non-
human animals are entitled to
the possession of their own
existence and that their most
basic interests—such as the
need to avoid suffering—
should be afforded the same
consideration as similar
interests of human beings.
They maintain that animals
should no longer be viewed as
property or used as food, clothing,
research subjects, entertainment,
or beasts of burden
3. Animal Rights
Belief that animals should not be exploited. People belief
that animals should not be used for food, clothing,
entertainment, medical research, or product testing. This
includes the use of animals in rodeos, zoos, circuses, and
even as pets. They believe it is ethically, morally, and
inherently wrong to use animals for human purposes under
any condition. Animals should not be used in experiments
in which diseases and various therapy methods are studied.

5. Historical development
Aristotle argued that animals lacked reason (logos),
and placed humans at the top of the natural world, yet
the respect for animals in ancient Greece was very
high. Some animals were considered divine, e.g.
dolphins. In the Book of Genesis 1:26 (5th or 6th
century BCE), Adam is given "dominion over the fish
of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the
cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping
thing that creepeth upon the earth." Dominion need
not entail property rights, but it has been interpreted,
by some, over the centuries to imply ownership
6. Animal rights activists argue that
modern farming is inhumane and that
eating meat is unhealthy. They contend
that modern farming is controlled by
large corporations that care only about
profits and not about the welfare of
animals.
Farmers have led the way in animal
welfare. It has always been in their best
interest to care for animals humanely
and to see that they are well-fed and free
of diseases.
Farming in the US is not controlled by
large corporations. Of the 2.2 million
farms in the US, 97% are family owned
and operated; only 7,000 are non-family-
controlled corporations.
No studies can substantiate that a
vegetarian diet is healthier than a diet
that includes meat, milk, and eggs.
7. Animals are used in three areas of
experimentation:
- research in biomedical &
behavior sciences
- testing of products for their
safety
- education where animals
are used for demonstrations &
dissections
Animal rights activists believe that
animal experimentation is
unethical and unnecessary and that
alternatives to animal
experimentation should be used.
Animals should be used only when
no other alternatives exist. Many
people believe that animal
experimentation and research hold
the key to successful cure of AIDS,
cancer, and heart disease.
8. Animal rights activists believe
that regulated recreational
hunting and trapping is
inhumane and unnatural.
They also believe that hunters
and trappers kill merely to
inflict suffering. They would
also like to see a stop to the
use of hunting dogs. Animal
rights activists also claim that
hunting and trapping does
not prevent overpopulation,
that hunting for food is
unnecessary, and that
hunting should be banned
completely.

REPEATED PROTESTS
DECISION MAKING ABILITY
AVOID / MINIMIZE EXPERIMENTATION

10. ETHICS
MORAL STATUS - (HUMANS = ANIMALS)
SPECIESISM (like racism) (inflicting pain on
human/animal is equally wrong)
ETHICAL SELF-EXAMINATION
(self-analysis of one's own personal and scientific
motives)
ETHICAL REVIEWS & AUDIT

14. Animal welfare
" Animal welfare " describes a broad spectrum of
views, while animal rights are more absolute. For
example, some animal welfare advocates might want a
ban on fur, while others might believe that fur is
morally acceptable if the animals are
killed "humanely" and do not suffer for too long in a
trap. "Animal welfare" may also be used describe the
speciesist view that certain animals (e.g. dogs, cats,
horses) are more deserving of protection than others
(e.g. fish, chickens, cows).
