The work we do at Animal Think Tank came from this kind of thinking. So it’d be great if the post brings more people and organizations along with these types of ideas.
A key difficulty of course is in designing ‘visionary pragmatism’. Let alone building the movement ecosystem, infrastructure and capacity to execute it.
After much time we have our own version in draft as a result of the research whose methodology you cite. A mix of increasing political representation, clustering thin rights, and the symbolic abolition of nominal property status.
Conceptualising visionary work is always long, slow, and hard. When I worked in the mega project industry the standard was to invest 3% of total resources of a project in the conceptualising and defining stage - not planning, but pre planning!
Bringing a new market category forward like a visionary objective, rather than a campaign within an existing category, is equivalent. It can take years.
It requires the construction of a new ecosystem and infrastructure.
For anyone interested in trying to putting visionary pragmatism into practice, then follow our work at Animal Think Tank - we’ll be releasing more and more this coming year of the culmination of our thinking on legislative, legal, narrative, mobilising and movement strategy towards institutionalising animal rights.
