| description |
The following research addresses the phenomena of veganism and activism for animal liberation, understanding both as forms of resistance and opposition to speciesism and the domination that humans exercise towards other animals. This work takes what is academically known as the “animal question” approach. In this regard, we sought to delve deeper into the discourses and meanings that emanate from the daily experience of vegan activists, and from their experiences as activists for animal liberation. Regarding the methodological aspect, the exploratory nature of the research and its phenomenological-interpretive design should be mentioned. The sample corresponds to five vegan activist subjects aspiring to animal liberation and residing in the City of Iquique, Chile. Data collection was carried out through semi-structured interviews, while the analysis was done through grounded theory. The main conclusion of the research was that the discourses and meanings of vegan activists are heterogeneous. However, and despite this, some common discourses and meanings can be found, for example, about the impossibility of abandoning veganism or regarding veganism as an engine of animal liberation. |

La siguiente investigación aborda los fenómenos del veganismo y el activismo por la liberación animal, entendiendo a ambos como formas de resistencia y oposición al especismo y la dominación que ejerce el ser humano hacia los otros animales. Corresponde a un trabajo que se aproxima desde la sociología a lo que académicamente se ha denominado como la “cuestión animal”. Al respecto, lo que se buscó fue profundizar en los discursos y significados que emanan de la experiencia cotidiana de los activistas veganos, y de sus experiencias en tanto activistas por la liberación animal. Sobre lo metodológico, se deben mencionar el carácter exploratorio de la investigación y su diseño fenomenológico-interpretativo. La muestra corresponde a cinco sujetos activistas veganos aspirantes a la liberación animal residentes en la ciudad de Iquique, Chile. La recolección de datos fue a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas, mientras que el análisis se realizó mediante teoría fundamentada. La principal conclusión de la investigación fue que los discursos y significados de los activistas veganos son heterogéneos. Sin embargo, y pese a eso, se pueden encontrar algunos discursos y significados comunes; por ejemplo, sobre la imposibilidad de abandonar el veganismo o respecto del veganismo como motor de la liberación animal.
