This major study develops a new account of modernity and its relation to the self. Building upon the ideas set out in The Consequences of Modernity, Giddens argues that 'high' or 'late' modernity is a post traditional order characterised by a developed institutional reflexivity. In the current period, the globalising tendencies of modern institutions are accompanied by a transformation of day-to-day social life having profound implications for personal activities. The self becomes a 'reflexive project', sustained through a revisable narrative of self identity. The reflexive project of the self, the author seeks to show, is a form of control or mastery which parallels the overall orientation of modern institutions towards 'colonising the future'. Yet it also helps promote tendencies which place that orientation radically in question - and which provide the substance of a new political agenda for late modernity.

評分如何理解现代性?在现代与后现代的争执中,吉登斯的分析首先是建立在一副晚期现代图景之下:一方面,吉登斯对现代性的理解视域受限:“late modern”means mainly north atlantic,white,industrial,and not of the late“communist”bloc.另一方面,正是在欧美工业文明这样一个...
