Animals & Society Institute
The Animals & Society Institute (ASI) is an American non-profit scholarly organization that works to expand knowledge about human–animal relationships, develop knowledge and resources in the field of human–animal studies (HAS), and create resources to address the relationship between animal cruelty and other forms of violence.
