By campaigning for the animal cause, Henry Spira succeeded in getting multinationals such as McDonald's or the cosmetics group Revlon to back down. In the 1970s, this former professor of American-Belgian literature became one of the emblematic figures in the fight against animal exploitation and abuse. His negotiation strategies are reminiscent of the two options for getting toothpaste out of a recalcitrant tube. On the one hand, unclogging the orifice to facilitate the exit of the paste, i.e. to propose viable solutions to the adversary. On the other hand, press on the tube, i.e. apply pressure if the result is delayed. Thanks to methods based on the principles of empathy, listening and pragmatism, he has enabled American animal rights activists to achieve a series of victories. How has the Spira Method revolutionized activism?
