On Animals

Cochrane, Alasdair, "ownership and Justice for Animals." Utilitas.


People get involved in social movements mostly for personal reasons. Sometimes it may depend on a personal experience or just a personality. An experience can be significant no matter the age and may be enough to inspire a person to do something about it or "move". Other times a person may be inspired by their surroundings (peers, wildlife, etc.) to react to situations a certain way. Sometimes curiosity has a major role. An individual might think a certain way because of the effort they put into their research. The one thing that is key for anyone to be a part of a movement is motivation. Although not always obvious there are plenty of ways to trigger it.
