target="_blank">https://editorial.tirant.com/es/libro/transicion-animal-en-espana-marita-gimenez-candela-9788413360164</a></h3><h3>English:</h3><p>The book “Animal Transition in Spain” by Marita Giménez-Candela (Tirant lo Blanch 2019) questions the treatment of animals as “things” by the Law, when society already considers them sentient beings, as proved by Animal Welfare Science.</p><p>The book “Animal Transition in Spain” (Tirant lo Blanch 2019) presents a broad and well-documented reflection on the changes in the treatment of animals experienced by the Law and society in the last ten years. The author, Marita Giménez-Candela, Professor of Law at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, pioneer of this subject in Europe, accurately details why animals must no longer be treated as things by the Law, as society already perceives that this legal treatment is behind the times according to the values of the global society in which we live, and the scientific evidence affirming that animals are sentient beings. The book is prefaced by Basilio Baltasar, writer, editor and corresponding member of the Real Academia de Buenas Letras de Barcelona. </p><ul><li>An original, profound and bold book. A well thought-out book to make one think, written with technical knowledge, direct experience and passion for animal life, from one who is a jurist with a wide and proven international scientific career. </li><li>Like a polished mirror, the author’s way of looking goes over the areas in which society has for a decade been manifesting its rejection of the Law treating animals as things.</li><li>Through culture, mistreatment, the legal status of animals and the teaching of animal law, it rigorously offers an exact x-ray of the treatment of animals within the context of the EU from a global perspective. </li><li>The animal de-objectification movement is only just beginning. This book provides the foundations necessary for this process of change not to be delayed. </li></ul><h3>Español:</h3><p>Este libro reúne la memoria viva de la autora acerca la aparición del Derecho Animal en España, un país en el que no existía casi nada antes del siglo XXI.  En los últimos diez años, la autora ha sido testigo de "primera fila" (Front Row) del cambio cultural y jurídico, que ha supuesto el nuevo protagonismo de los animales en España. En efecto, el trato que el Derecho y la sociedad española dispensa a los animales ha cambiado y a ello han contribuido la introducción pionera de los estudios de Derecho Animal, a nivel académico, que han impulsado una nueva generación de profesionales que no solamente se manifiestan a favor de los animales, sino que trabajan como "abogados" de los animales. Por eso, estos escritos representan una fuente auténtica que construye un relato de los esfuerzos, los retos y los compromisos que esta transición ha necesitado en España. </p><p>No de forma casual se usa el término "transición animal" en el título. La razón subyacente es que la sociedad española ha experimentado un consenso acerca del buen trato que se debe dar a los animales, semejante al que vivió en la transición política y que culminó en las reformas legales que han configurado la democracia social en la que vivimos. Esta transición animal es la fase preparatoria de las reformas legales que se esperan en los próximos años. </p><p>Un libro, por tanto, como el que se presenta es una necesidad, para dotar de referencias a una sociedad que aún no ha reflexionado colectivamente sobre los cambios que hemos vivido en estos años. En la literatura reciente de nuestro país, no hay nada semejante publicado. Sí, en cambio, en Italia, en Francia y Reino Unido, hay abundante literatura desde hace años y así mismo en los Estados Unidos. No, en cambio en Alemania, Austria y Suiza.</p><p>Los interrogantes a los que este libro da respuesta son, entre otros: ¿Cómo ha sido y cómo es el tratamiento jurídico de los animales en España?; ha sido la cultura un impulso o un freno para mejorar la protección jurídica de los animales?; ¿cuál era el panorama de los estudios sobre Animales y Derecho hace 10 años?; ¿qué progresos se han producido?; ¿están relacionados también con la creación de la primera web y la primera colección de libros con contenidos jurídicos acerca de los animales en España?;  los estudios académicos (Grado y Máster) y los cambios editoriales han contribuido al desarrollo del debate sobre la cuestión animal?; esta evolución conducirá finalmente a un cambio del estatuto jurídico de los animales, la Descosificación? </p><h3>EDITOR’S NOTE</h3><p>The book “Animal Transition in Spain” is the sixth volume in the “Animals and Law” collection founded in 2015 by Tirant lo Blanch (Valencia) – the most prestigious and award-winning legal editorial of our country (<a href="http://www.tirant.com/" target="_blank">www.tirant.com</a>).
