Jean Estebanez, geographer at Université Paris Est-Créteil and Lab’Urba, presents Zoos: On the Edges of the Domestic, recently published by CNRS Editions.
Drawing on extensive fieldwork across nearly sixty zoos, the book offers a thought-provoking analysis of the paradoxes inherent in zoological institutions. It examines the complex and often ambivalent relationships between humans and animals, shaped by conservation efforts, spectacle, and domestication.
