Beck‘s entire body of work is divided into four interrelated phases, which are successively presented and discussed, namely: the original theory of risk society (from 1986 onwards); the theory of the world risk society (from 1996 onwards); the theory of cosmopolitanism and cosmopolitanization (from 1996 onwards); and the theory of ‘metamorphosis‘, ‘emancipatory catastrophism and ‘global imagined risk communities‘ (2013–16). The book thus demonstrates how Beck’s concept of the (world) risk society has given us a new language or a special lens that enables us to better understand contemporary society’s complexity and its myriad of human-made uncertainties in terms of climate change, terrorist threats, global pandemics, economic crises, and migration crises. | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | sociology of risk; multiculturalism; cosmopolitanization; individualism; reflexive modernity | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-89201-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-89203-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-89201-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
