ANIMAL LAW AND POST-HUMANISM: FORMATION AND AUTONOMY OF A POST-HUMANIST KNOWLEDGE

Abstract

In the essayTheory of the Constitution: Animal Law and Post-Humanism, the author, Tagore Trajano de Almeida Silva, favors a dialogue between the Theory of the Constitution and the Theory of Animal Rights, stating that this, in fact, derives from the first and that, ultimately, constitutionalism, as a historical and international phenomenon, separates ecological constitutionalism.
Thus, the Animal Law approach, in relation to the Constitutional Theory, will move away from the anthropocentric conception of law, giving the constitutional text a post-humanist resignification, expanding it to a wider group of living beings
