Genealogy of Obedience
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-38028-8 (ISBN)
In Genealogy of Obedience Justyna Włodarczyk provides a long overdue look at the history of companion dog training methods in North America since the mid-nineteenth century, when the market of popular training handbooks emerged. Włodarczyk argues that changes in the functions and goals of dog training are entangled in bigger cultural discourses; with a particular focus on how animal training has served as a field for playing out anxieties related to race, class and gender in North America. By applying a Foucauldian genealogical perspective, the book shows how changes in training methods correlate with shifts in dominant regimes of power. It traces the rise and fall of obedience as a category for conceptualizing relationships with dogs.
Justyna Włodarczyk, PhD (2009) is Assistant Professor at the University of Warsaw. She has published on the human-animal bond in the US and in Poland and has recently co-edited Free Market Dogs: The Human-Canine Bond in Post-Communist Poland (Purdue, 2016).
