Ulrich Beck  

Definition(s)

  • Ulrich Beck's work became widely known to an international audience in the early 1990s when his book Risk Society: Towards a New Modernity (1986) was first published in English translation. Though the book is wide-ranging and often surprisingly impassioned in its arguments, most readers agree that he makes two novel claims. [Source: The SAGE Dictionary of Sociology; Beck, Ulrich]
