Saskia Stucki – Visiting Researcher

During my time as a visiting researcher with the Animal Law & Policy Program, I worked

on my postdoctoral research project “Trilogy on a Legal Theory of Animal Rights.” The Trilogy

consists of three separate but interrelated articles, each exploring a different facet of animal

rights law, namely: legal animal rights in general, human rights-like fundamental animal

rights in particular, and the relationship between animal welfare law and animal rights. The

first article, entitled “Toward a Theory of Legal Animal Rights: Simple and Fundamental

Rights” was recently published in the Oxford Journal of Legal Studies (2020). The third article,

entitled “Beyond Animal Warfare Law: Humanizing the ‘War on Animals’ and the Need for

Complementary Animal Rights” has been submitted to various US law journals, and I expect

it to be published by early 2021. I am currently finalizing the second article, entitled “(Non)

Human Rights for Animals: Towards an Integrative One Rights Approach.”
