具體描述
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.
In this book Giddens concerns himself with themes he has often been accused of unduly neglecting, including especially the psychology of self and self-identity. The volumes are a decisive step in the development of his thinking, and will be essential reading for students and professionals in the areas of social and political theory, sociology, human geography and social psychology.

評分 評分 評分总体的感觉就是生涩难懂。本书涉及很多抽象名词，比如说本体安全、身体之反身性师范、脱域机制等。就这一个个名词就够琢磨咯，更别说其理论化的内容。总之，就是读着很不爽快。这种写作方式让人看一眼就想扔一边。又不得不再拿起来，再看一眼，还是不想看。于是就痛苦的的在看...
