How did Denmark develop the large-scale industrial livestock production that has become so hotly debated in recent years?
We still lack a full historical understanding of this transformation. Livestock in Transition addresses this gap by investigating the rise of industrial pig and dairy production in Denmark from the 1950s to the present.
We ask when, how and why barns and animal bodies were transformed, how these changes were contested, and how they reshaped relations between humans and animals.
Speakers Esben Bøgh Sørensen and Simon Halberg
