A major new book by one of the world's leading sociologists and social thinkers.
This book picks up the themes first addressed by Beck in his best-selling book Risk Society and reworks them for the 21st century.
Beck places the risks and threats associated with global warming, international terrorism and the increasingly volatile global economy at the centre of his social theory.
This book is set to become a classic of contemporary social thought.
