          Abstract

          Resumen Objetivo: Analizar los argumentos y fuentes sobre el veganismo/vegetarianismo en 2022 presentes en la prensa mexicana, con el objetivo de comprobar cómo se retratan estos movimientos. Metodología: Aplicando el análisis de contenido, los argumentos se clasificaron por temas de forma inductiva, identificando las fuentes. Resultados: Salud, sostenibilidad y bienestar animal son los temas más vinculados a estos movimientos, retratados de forma positiva. El veganismo tuvo más protagonismo y la redacción de los periódicos fue la fuente principal, seguida de celebridades, fuentes científicas y activistas. Limitaciones: El análisis se limita a la prensa mexicana. Conclusiones: Se aporta una perspectiva latinoamericana a estudios sobre veganismo/vegetarianismo en los medios. La cobertura del veganismo/vegetarianismo por parte de la prensa mexicana en 2022 fue predominantemente positiva, por lo que no se repite el patrón observado en análisis anteriores de prensa de países anglosajones. El veganismo parece estar más en auge que el vegetarianismo.

          Abstract Objective: To analyze the arguments and sources about veganism/vegetarianism in 2022 in the Mexican press, with the objective of how these movements are portrayed. Methodology: Applying content analysis, the arguments were classified by themes in an inductive way, identifying the sources. Results: Health, sustainability, and animal wellbeing are the issues most linked to these movements, portrayed in a positive light. Veganism had more prominence, and the own newsroom of the newspapers was the most cited source, followed by celebrities, scientific sources, and activists. Limitations: The analysis is limited to the Mexican press. Conclusions: A Latin American perspective is brought to studies on veganism/vegetarianism in the media. The coverage of veganism/vegetarianism by the Mexican press in 2022 was predominantly positive, so the pattern observed in previous press analysis in Anglo-Saxon countries is not repeated. Veganism seems to be more popular than vegetarianism.

          Vegetarianism. A blossoming field of study.

          Vegetarianism, the practice of abstaining from eating meat, has a recorded history dating back to ancient Greece. Despite this, it is only in recent years that researchers have begun conducting empirical investigations of the practices and beliefs associated with vegetarianism. The present article reviews the extant literature, exploring variants of and motivations for vegetarianism, differences in attitudes, values and worldviews between omnivores and vegetarians, as well as the pronounced gender differences in meat consumption and vegetarianism. Furthermore, the review highlights the extremely limited cultural scope of the present data, and calls for a broader investigation across non-Western cultures. Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

              Vegaphobia: derogatory discourses of veganism and the reproduction of speciesism in UK national newspapers1

              This paper critically examines discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers in 2007. In setting parameters for what can and cannot easily be discussed, dominant discourses also help frame understanding. Discourses relating to veganism are therefore presented as contravening commonsense, because they fall outside readily understood meat-eating discourses. Newspapers tend to discredit veganism through ridicule, or as being difficult or impossible to maintain in practice. Vegans are variously stereotyped as ascetics, faddists, sentimentalists, or in some cases, hostile extremists. The overall effect is of a derogatory portrayal of vegans and veganism that we interpret as 'vegaphobia'. We interpret derogatory discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers as evidence of the cultural reproduction of speciesism, through which veganism is dissociated from its connection with debates concerning nonhuman animals' rights or liberation. This is problematic in three, interrelated, respects. First, it empirically misrepresents the experience of veganism, and thereby marginalizes vegans. Second, it perpetuates a moral injury to omnivorous readers who are not presented with the opportunity to understand veganism and the challenge to speciesism that it contains. Third, and most seriously, it obscures and thereby reproduces exploitative and violent relations between human and nonhuman animals.
