Описание: In the 1990s a small midwestern American town approved the construction of a massive pork complex, where almost 7 million hogs are birthed, raised, and killed every year. In Porkopolis Alex Blanchette explores how this rural community has been reorganized around the life and death cycles of corporate pigs. Drawing on over two years of ethnographic fieldwork, Blanchette immerses readers into the workplaces that underlie modern meat, from slaughterhouses and corporate offices to artificial insemination barns and bone-rendering facilities. He outlines the deep human-hog relationships and intimacies that emerge through intensified industrialization, showing how even the most mundane human action, such as a wayward touch, could have serious physical consequences for animals. Corporations' pursuit of a perfectly uniform, standardized pig—one that can yield materials for over 1000 products—creates social and environmental instabilities that transform human lives and livelihoods. Throughout Porkopolis, which includes dozens of images by award-winning photographer Sean Sprague, Blanchette uses factory farming to rethink the fraught state of industrial capitalism in the United States today.

Описание:
Blanchette is a white toy poodle who lives very happily with her human family-her mom, Bobbie; her dad, Mel; and their two daughters, Melanie and Lana. At first, Blanchette is the only animal member of the family. Then everything begins to change.
First a lady at the salon tells Mom about some kittens due to be born soon. When they are all white, just like Blanchette, Mom decides to adopt one; the family names her Snowball. Blanchette eventually learns to love and accept the addition to their house, but Snowball is only the first of many new arrivals. A new cat named Mr. Black soon appears, followed by Bow, Honey and her kittens, and a neighborhood cat named Smokey. Nine cats in all join the family over many years, causing a bit of mayhem while building a large and happy family.
In this children's story, a toy poodle named Blanchette tells the tale of the nine cats and kittens that make their way into her family's household.
