Episode 3
Post-human justice: Why and how did we bring animals before the court?
In this episode, we reconsider justice by going beyond the human-centric perspectives with Cansu Muratoğlu, Emre Koyuncu, and Merve Şen. Taking the animal courts in the Middle Ages as the starting point, we discuss agency and responsibility in light of the post-human theory.
Here are some of the questions we raise in the episode:
Historically who has been excluded from being the subject of law? How was the legal personality constructed? To whom and what dignity was not ascribed? What kind of insights does post-human theory offer?
