When Philip Pettit came to Barcelona in 2022, he sat with the PhD students during lunch, and asked us what we were working on. Seemed to be genuinely interested - practicizing the kind of horizontality he preaches.

I think my optimism is also due (in part) to my having studied in an academic/intellectual environment which has moved quite quickly from generally mocking/ignoring animal issues to hosting a very active community of animal ethicists.

Not an exhaustive list, but I'd say the recent work on sentience and uncertainty, inter-species welfare comparisons, wild animal suffering, the political turn in general, just war & animals, the integration of animals in cost-benefit analysis, or discussions informed by the psychology of speciesim.

Amazing, thanks! Had totally escaped my gaze. Updating my optimism a bit :)

Obviously, still a long road ahead. As far as I know, Ethics hasn't published an animal ethics paper since 1978. That's revealing. (Partial exception: Jaworksa and Tannenbaum's article on moral status - which does discuss animals *a bit*).

Sufjan Steven's Illinoise or Lucinda Williams' Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. I can think of many more which I don't believe will make it to the cannon - such as Jake Xerxes Fussell's When I'm Called or Waxahatchee's Tigers Blood (both from last year). But so much the worse for the cannon!
