Abstract
Abstract Ulrich Beck is a German sociologist whose major contributions are in the field of social and political theory. Beck is best known for three pathbreaking and intertwined theoretical moves: first, his grand theory of “reflexive modernization”; second, the notions of “forced individualization” and “global risk society,” which refer to constitutive elements of a new, second modernity engendered by reflexive modernization; third, a distinct understanding of globalization and cosmopolitanization, which grounds Beck's political and normative “cosmopolitan realism.”
