(transdisciplinary network of scientists in human-animal studies)
The research group for Human-Animal Studies, »Chimaira«, was founded in 2010 by researchers in the field of Human-Animal Studies. The group tries to establish Human-Animal Studies in the German speaking area by offering colloquia, lectures by members, a lecture series at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin 2013, a research workshop in 2014, and several publications. Chimaira has so far published two anthologies: »Human-Animal Studies. Über die gesellschaftliche Natur von Mensch-Tier-Verhältnissen« (»Human-Animal Studies. On the social nature of human animal relations«) (transcript 2011) und »Tiere Bilder Ökonomien. Aktuelle Forschungsfragen der Human-Animal Studies« (»Animals Images Economies. Current debates in Human-Animal Studies«) (transcript 2013).
