His world risk society theory has been confirmed by recent disasters – events that have shaken modern society to the core, signaling the end of an era in which comprehensive insurance could keep us safe. Due to its own successes, modern society now faces failure: while in the past experiments were conducted in a lab, now the whole world is a test bed. Whether nuclear plants, genetically modified organisms, nanotechnology – if any of these experiments went wrong, the consequences would have a global impact and would be irreversible. Beck recommends ignoring the mathematical morality of expert opinions, which seek to identify the level of a given risk by calculating the probability of its occurrence. Instead, man’s fear of collapse should offer an opportunity for international cooperation and a cosmopolitan turn in the social sciences. | | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | | 关键词 | Cosmopolitanism; Cosmopolitization; Individualization; Reflexive Modernization; Risk Society; Ulrich Beck | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-04990-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-04989-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-04990-8Series ISSN 2194-3125 Series E-ISSN 2194-3133 | | issn_series | 2194-3125 | | copyright | The Author(s) 2014 |
