About meI am a lecturer in sociology at University College Dublin, Ireland and at the University of Wales, Bangor. At Bangor, I have taught critical/social theory, social change and the sociology of humour. I also taught courses on social movements and protest, using the US and British animal protection movements as case studies. In the next academic year (2007/08), I will be teaching a course at UCD on environmentalism and animal rights and hope to complete a book on "animal harming animal lovers". I completed my Ph.D on Human-Nonhuman Relations in 2004. Most recent publication: 2007 - "Debating 'Animal Rights' Online: the movement-counter-movement dialectic revisited", in P. Beirne & N. South (eds.) Issues in Green Criminology: Confronting Harms Against Environments, Humanity and Other Animals, Willan publ.
