Fraser’s three status forms map cleanly onto harms suffered by nature

Evidence

Fraser identifies three ways in which a lack of recognition, or misor malrecognition, degrade the status of individuals or an identity. All of these are applicable to an understanding of the status injury we impose on individual animals, species or communities, and the natural world as a whole. Fraser’s three forms of status misrecognition are (a) a general practice of cultural domination, (b) a pattern of nonrecognition, which is the equivalent of being rendered invisible, and (c) disrespect, or being routinely maligned or disparaged in stereotypic public and cultural representations (Fraser 1998: 7). These are structural, social, and symbolic indicators of misrecognition or lack of respect, and they are directly related to the status of the individual or community being maligned. Importantly, none of these factors rely on the psychological interpretation or feelings of the victim. — David Schlosberg, Defining Environmental Justice, 466
