Lobbying, Compassion, Nonhuman Animals
COMPASS (Lobbying and Compassion. Interest groups, discourse and nonhuman animals in Spain) aims to examine how our internal moral compass, compassion, may be prevented from flourishing and developing in modern society through the work of a major public relations and public affairs actor: interest groups. In order to do so we will address one of the most growing moral concerns at present: this is our relationship with nonhuman animals.
