Features: In recent years, globalization theory has become increasingly popular. Its main representative, Ulrich Beck, does not simply advocate for globalization but questions and critiques Western traditional modernization theory.
Ulrich Beck, a renowned German sociologist and professor at the University of Munich, has long been engaged in research on social development and globalization. He is highly prolific in this field, proposing many original insights and concepts, forming his own theories, and is considered a pioneering expert in globalization theory. This book, presented in a dialogue format and following Beck's recent research perspectives, systematically reveals the challenges faced by mainstream Western ideas and institutions in the era of globalization and their prospects. This is highly beneficial for systematically understanding globalization and its related major issues, and it helps broaden readers' perspectives on thinking about globalization.
