- More about How Our Love of Dogs Creates Social Conflict
Dogs and people have a unique bond, with ownership creating a powerful psychological connection that makes it easier for people to imbue dogs with humanlike characteristics. Beggan's analysis of social conflict between people over their dogs connects to profound philosophical concepts about the nature of mind, the relationship between humans and animals, and the moral responsibility human beings have to dogs and other animals.

Dogs and humans have had a special relationship for the past twenty thousand years, and James K. Beggan's book "How Our Love of Dogs Creates Social Conflict" explores the meaning of dogs in our lives. While some animal rights activists may be concerned about the subordinate status of ownership, Beggan argues that it creates a powerful psychological connection that allows people to attribute human-like characteristics to dogs. Dogs' sensitivity to inequity and high cognitive capacity make them active agents in creating conflict between people. Beggan's analysis of social conflict over dogs connects to profound philosophical concepts about the nature of mind, the relationship between humans and animals, and the moral responsibility we have towards dogs and other animals.
