[hal-01135352] Analyzing valuation practices through contracts: the case of animal breeding under the genomic revolution.

This paper seeks to analyze the most recent changes in how societies value animals. We analyze this topic through the prism of contracts between breeding companies and farmers. Focusing on new valuation practices and qualification of breeding animals, we question the evaluation of difficult commensurable entities (animal, embryo, mating) and the impacts of these valuation and qualifications on government of living entities.
