本文着重于美学“真理”的生产在英国畜牧育种,借鉴详细的定性研究与育种家和品种社会。它扩展了人类地理研究中对美学的新兴兴趣,研究了对非人类动物的审美判断如何部分依赖于动物的代理以及它们在特定地方与人类的主体间关系。审美评价进一步产生了对动物伦理可考虑性的内隐判断,同时模糊了这种判断对动物的框架和治疗的影响。因此,审美评价与一系列物质利益和伦理利益有关。这篇论文对福柯的《生物力量》进行了超越人类的解读,探讨了动物视觉评价的真相是如何确立的。两种经验观点探讨,首先,评估肉牛和羊的“关系实用美学”,探索特定动物的美学框架的含义,其次,当不同的美学真理冲突时,当审美评价的传统遇到遗传评价模式时,观察动物所涉及的紧张关系。本文最后讨论了家畜育种中评估模式正在发生的转变所带来的伦理影响,表明从主体间审美评估模式的转变进一步削弱了动物的伦理地位。
This paper focuses on the production of aesthetic ‘truths’ in UK livestock breeding, drawing on detailed qualitative research with breeders and breed societies. It extends emerging interest in the aesthetic in human geographical research, examining how aesthetic judgements about non-human animals depend, in part, on the agency of the animal and their inter-subjective relations with humans in specific places. Aesthetic evaluation further produces implicit judgements about animals' ethical considerability, at the same time obscuring the effects of such judgements on their framing and treatment. Aesthetic evaluation is thus related to sets of material and ethical interests. The paper develops a more-than-human reading of Foucault's biopower, which explores how truths about visual evaluations of animals become established. Two empirical perspectives explore, first, a ‘relational practical aesthetic’ for evaluating beef cattle and sheep, exploring the implications of the aesthetic framing of specific animals and, second, the tensions involved in looking at animals when different aesthetic truths conflict and when traditions of aesthetic evaluation encounter genetic modes of evaluation. The paper concludes by discussing the ethical implications of ongoing transformations of evaluative modes in livestock breeding, suggesting that shifts away from inter-subjective modes of aesthetic evaluation further diminish the ethical status of animals.
