Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Speciesism" in English language version.
There are various definitions of speciesism in circulation in the academic literature and beyond.
[S]peciesism is the unjustified disadvantageous consideration or treatment of those who are not classified as belonging to one or more particular species.
Speciesism is the name given to the presumption of human superiority over other animals and their subjection to oppression based on this belief.

Some authors treat speciesism as an unjustified position by definition. This is problematic, however, since the defensibility of speciesism is subject to substantive debate. A more fruitful approach is to distinguish the descriptive concept of speciesism from its normative evaluation. Here, and in what follows, I will adopt Singer's definition, according to which speciesism involves the preferential consideration of the interests of members of one's own species.
