GONZALEZ CORTES, Javier. Animal rights in Colombia: an entangled set of discourses. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2020, n.48, pp.245-260.  Epub 11-Maio-2020. ISSN 1886-5887.

In light of the development of arguments that support animal protection strategies, in this article we identify and analyse different discourses on animal rights which have been pronounced in documents associated with the executive, legislative and judicial branches of power in Colombia. We found misconstrued discourses that promote animal mistreatment practices and others whose lack of argumentative rigour does not allow them to be properly characterized as animal rights. This situation reveals the need to review the conceptual tools, particularly, of those that actively participate in the defence of non-human animals.
