contents Animal welfare and the law: History, definition, and ethics Carlos Contreras López Macarena Montes Franceschini Comunicación plant welfarism based diet abolitionism Five Freedoms Animal welfare’s evolution indicates humanity’s changing attitudes toward the treatment of animals. From its roots in Jeremy Bentham’s philosophy emphasizing the avoidance of suffering as a moral imperative to its inclusion in modern legislation and policy, animal welfare’s journey is marked by legal and scientific milestones, as well as ethical discussions about our treatment of animals. The advancement from rudimentary notions of humane treatment to comprehensive standards encompassing physical health, emotional well-being, and behavioral freedoms reflects a growing recognition of animals as sentient beings with specific interests that require legal recognition and adequate enforcement, alongside overcoming industrial animal agriculture’s relentless lobbying against these advances and the transition to a plant-based diet. 2025 artículo científico 2174-3487 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=511782476004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476004/511782476004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476004/movil 10.7203/metode.16.29421 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5117 Mètode Science Studies Journal application/pdf Universitat de València Mètode Science Studies Journal (España) Num.5 Vol.15
