“We argue that human hierarchies based on racism, sexism and other forms of oppression are all grounded in the ontological divide between humans and animals and the environment. If it is acceptable to perpetrate violence against animals because they are not human, you can also justify violence against other humans because they are perceived as a lower form of life. Violence against indigenous peoples, slavery and imperialism have all been justified on that basis.”

“What is our political and ethical relationship to other-than-human beings and matter? As I have argued (Ranta-Tyrkkö, 2017), currently social work professional codes of ethics focus largely on worker–client relationships in the present tense. In so doing, they limit, rather than empower, attempts to think about and practice social work with a broader spatial (for example, more than national) and temporal (for example, intergenerational) awareness, and in more collective (and not individualist and human-only centred) ways.”
