"Dawn McCance … reports the recent “refutation” by several analytic philosophers of all continental philosophy, but especially of Heidegger and Derrida, on the animal question. Both Heidegger and Derrida, say the analytical philosophers, remain ‘subjectivist’ and ‘anthropocentric.’ The analytical philosophers avoid these pitfalls, they declare, by meands of the ‘clarity’ of their ‘explicit argumentation.’ As such. One has to hope the analytical philosophers never go on the endangered species list: the loss in entertainment value worldwide would be crushing."
