Abstract:
The Question(s) of Youth, of what to do with them, of how to school them, or police them, or regulate them, or house them, or employ them, or prevent them from becoming involved in any number of Risky (sexual, eating, drug (ab)using or peer cultural) practices are questions which have a substantial historical aspect. In the Liberal Democracies at the end of the millennium the Crisis of Youth (at-Risk) is a key marker in theoretical, political and popular debates about Youth. This thesis explores the 'conditions of possibility' which enable discourses of Youth at-Risk to function as true (Henriques et al 1984). I argue that the truth of Youth at-Risk rehearses, in part, the historical truths of Youth as Delinquent, Deviant and Disadvantaged. I will also argue that a historically novel aspect of the truth of Youth at-Risk is that, potentially, every behaviour, every practice, every group of Youth can be constructed in terms of Risk. This thesis is not about the practices, behaviours and dispositions of young people. Rather, my concern is with the ways in which institutionally structured processes of expert knowledge production construct the truths of Youth (at-Risk). The thesis is concerned with the processes by which these largely autonomous systems of expert knowledge production are constitutive of both the 'institutional reflexivity' which characterises contemporary settings, and the forms of identity which emerge in these settings (Giddens 1994 c). I am also concerned with the ways in which these systems of expertise mobilise categories of Risk in diverse attempts to regulate the behaviours and dispositions of certain populations of young people under the conditions of 'reflexive modernization' (Beck, Giddens & Lash 1994). The thesis argues for a productive convergence between theories of reflexive modernization and governmentality. This convergence enables Youth at-Risk to be examined at two (interconnected) levels. In the first instance Risk is understood as constituting a metanarrative in an Age of Manufactured Uncertainty. In the second instance the identification of Risk factors and populations at-Risk will be understood as techniques mobilised in diverse attempts to 'make up' rational, choice making, autonomous, responsible citizens within (Neo)Liberal projects of government (Rose 1996). Foucault's (1991) theory of governmentality foregrounds the practices and relations implicated in the processes whereby 'human beings are made into subjects' (Foucault 1983). Governmentality is a useful and strategic analytic for understanding the diverse attempts by various experts and centres of expertise to regulate young people's identity through the construction of populations of Youth at-Risk. Processes of reflexive modernization are marked by the emergence of a degree of collective awareness that our contemporary conditions of existence are characterised by the thoroughgoing penetration of the social and the natural by reflexive human knowledge. Such a situation leads, not to a position in 'which collectively we are the masters [sic] of our destiny'; but rather to a series of settings in which we are confronted with the possibility that, as a 'consequence of our own doings', the future becomes 'very threatening' (Beck, Giddens & Lash 1994). In problematising the truth of Youth at-Risk this thesis will also engage with various problematisations of Left (critical) intellectual and political practices in domains which take Youth as their object. This thesis is explicitly located in the space of 'critical' (Educational) scholarship in Anglo settings which is structured, historically, by the 'European Marxist social philosophy' of the Frankfurt School and Gramscian (British) Cultural Studies, and French and Italian Feminism and Post (Structuralism and Modernism) (Popkewitz and Brennan 1997). The thesis argues that in order to problematise the truth of Youth at-Risk it is necessary, also, to problematise the processes of truth production mobilised from the Left in an engagement with the material and discursive realities which enable Youth at-Risk to function as a truth. Examining the truth of Youth at-Risk in the frameworks enabled by a convergence of theories of reflexive modernization and governmentality is a contribution to the processes of rethinking the intellectual and political positions which the Left might mobilise at the end of the millennium, when, as Beck (1994 ) argues, 'uncertainty returns'. I will argue that Left intellectual and political practice has no choice but to be open to the uncertain nature of truth telling which characterises processes of reflexive modernization. The tensions generated within these processes are not resolvable. Nor should the 'return of uncertainty' be seen as immobilising in the context of political and intellectual practice. The thesis argues that theories of reflexive modernization and governmentality highlight the dangers of intellectual and political positions which invest heavily in 'modernity's war on ambivalence' (Bauman 1990 b). In settings where the practices and activities of expertise have so thoroughly penetrated the natural and the social, where these processes of colonisation have resulted in the 'return of uncertainty', then the practices and activities of expertise promise, paradoxically, to 'exterminate ambivalence' by telling the truths of Youth at-Risk (Bauman 1990 b). This thesis argues that in an Age of Manufactured Uncertainty the mobilisation of rationally grounded Risk discourses in attempts to regulate Youth emerges as a paradoxical, and dangerous, Quest for Certainty (Bauman 1990 a).

Abstract:
The goal of this study is to see how risk assessment is executed on the social media platform Facebook. The aim is to see how risk assessment in contrast of Ulrich Becks (2012) theory about risk society and reflexive modernization can help understand how users on Facebook minimize the possible risk of their actions on Facebook. The study is of a qualitative variety and is based on interviews with ten different Facebook users and processed by being thematised by criminalty, risks of health, politic risks, economical risks and risks about integrity. It is also summarized by different strategies to minimize risks that the participants discussed in the interviews. The most important results in this study was connected to risks about source criticism and actions that could have an impact on work-related questions. It was possible to see in the study that if a user had knowledge about potential risks they were mostly more likely to protect themselves against it. Also it concludes that in some cases experience that users learns from does not have to be related to their own experiences.

Abstract:
A presente dissertação pretende analisar o pensamento do sociólogo alemão contemporâneo Ulrich Beck. Relacionar o pensamento do autor com a questão da globalização no âmbito do contexto das relações internacionais. Partindo de uma perspectiva crítica, analisar a teoria da sociedade do risco num contexto global, caracterizando-a e expondo os riscos a ela associados. Desenvolvendo o conceito de modernização reflexiva, Beck analisa os novos problemas da sociedade. Problemas esses, desencadeados pela hegemonia do poder económico, muitas vezes controlados pelo poder político e constantemente afrontados pelos riscos globais e democráticos. Pretende-se analisar o fenómeno da globalização. A definição de globalização e as suas principais características. Os erros associados ao globalismo e as respostas apontadas pelo autor, ao fenómeno da globalização. Partindo de uma teoria crítica da sociedade, Beck propõe a Europa como a principal resposta à globalização adoptando um modelo de Europa cosmopolita./ ABSTRACT; The theoretical foundation of this study is based on the analysis of the thought of the German contemporary sociologist Ulrich Beck. Relate the author's thought with the question of globalization as seen within the context of lnternational Relations. Following a critical perspective, this study aims to analyse theory of the risk society on a global context, characterizing it and exposing the associated risks. By developing the concept of reflexive modernization, Beck analyses the new problems of society. Problems triggered off by the hegemony of the economic power, many times controlled by the political power and threatened by the global and democratic risks. This study intended to analyse the globalization phenomenon. The definition of globalization and its main characteristics. The mistakes associated to globalization and the answers given to the globalization phenomenon. Ulrich Beck suggests Europe as the main answer to globalization, adopting a model of a cosmopolitan Europe.

The environmental risk is highlighted on the global stage and in various sciences, after increasing the environmental concerns, such as the rise of the spirit of insecurity and the uncertainty in the quality of life in the future. Such aspects transpired / transpire the notion that society lives in a constant condition of vulnerability and, increasingly susceptible to new risks from modernity. However much that resembles the term risk is away from pollution concepts, degradation, environmental impacts or depreciation of natural resources. In other words, the risk is the probability or possibility of a disastrous event occurs, may cause loss, destruction or irreparable damage to human life and / or material goods. Thus, the terms threat, danger and disasters are interconnected, and sometimes may be mistaken or even considered risk synonymous. However, the risk study stands out with the formulation of the theory of reflexive modernity, with its cornerstone in the idea that "society threat to itself." As Beck sociologists, Giddens and Lash (2011) the developers / proponents of this theory. From this, it defined the main purpose of this dissertation, analyze the risks in modern times, and the city of Catalão, located in the extreme southeast of the state of Goiás, as a study area for understanding environmental risks through the theory of reflexive modernity. The approach method used in a predominant way, was the deductive method, but mixed with the observational method. Since the methodology was based on three steps: literature on risk and its variations, as well as reflexive modernity; field research for the identification, characterization and verification of the risks in the spatial area, through technical visits to public and private entities bodies, observation form, photographic records and geographic coordinates of collections; and finally mapping in map for the production of synthesis of the major environmental risks of the area studied. The classification adopted environmental risk is the adaptation of the model presented by Egler (1996), which divides into three follow-up, namely natural, technological and social. The city of Catalão (GO) has, in general, more risk associated with technological risks or inefficient infrastructure, as follows: two areas of risk to exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) for overhead transmission power lines (LT) , an area the power distribution substation, such as twenty-one points by transmission antennas Mobile Phone System - Radiobases stations (ERB), three points for risk of dam breaking, three areas for risk of fire, twenty six risk points for gas stations activity, as well as risk of stretch by rail and road. Already the natural hazards present two areas of exogenous geological risk and fifteen points for hydrological risks, divided into two areas by flood, eleven by flooding and two by flood. It was concluded that the catalana society is exposed to the adverse effects discussed in the theory of reflexive modernization. It also highlights the need to prepare the Plan Risk Reduction (PMRR).
O risco ambiental ganha destaque no cenário global e em diversas ciências, após o crescente aumento nas inquietações ambientais, tal como, pela ascensão do espírito de insegurança e pelas incertezas na qualidade de vida no futuro. Tais aspectos transpareceram/transparecem a noção de que a sociedade vive numa incessante condição de vulnerabilidade, e que, cada vez mais, susceptível aos novos riscos oriundos da modernidade. Entretanto, por mais que se assemelhe, o termo risco se afasta dos conceitos de poluição, degradação, impactos ambientais ou depreciação de recursos naturais. Ou seja, o risco é a probabilidade ou possibilidade de um evento desastroso ocorrer, podendo causar perdas, destruição ou danos irreparáveis a vida humana e/ou aos bens materiais. Assim, os termos ameaças, perigo e desastres estão interligados, e por vezes, podendo ser confundidos ou até mesmo considerados como sinônimos de risco. Porém, o estudo de risco se destaca com a formulação da teoria da modernidade reflexiva, tendo sua pedra fundamental na concepção de que “a sociedade ameaça a si mesma”. Sendo os sociólogos Beck, Lash e Giddens (2011) e Brüseke (2001) os elaboradores/defensores desta teoria. A partir disso, definiu-se a principal proposta desta dissertação, analisar os riscos na modernidade, tendo a cidade de Catalão, localizada no extremo sudeste do estado de Goiás, como área de estudo para compreensão dos riscos ambientais, através da teoria da modernidade reflexiva. O método de abordagem utilizado, de forma predominante, foi o método dedutivo, porém mesclado com o método observacional. Já a metodologia baseou-se em três etapas: pesquisa bibliográfica sobre riscos e suas vertentes, bem como, modernidade reflexiva; pesquisa de campo para a identificação, caracterização e verificação dos riscos no recorte espacial, através de visitas técnicas em órgãos públicos e entidades privadas, ficha de observação, registros fotográficos e coletas de coordenadas geográficas; e por fim, levantamento cartográfico para produção do mapa síntese dos principais riscos ambientais da área estuda. A classificação do risco ambiental adotada é a o modelo apresentado por Egler (1996), sendo trabalhada apenas os riscos naturais e tecnológicos. A cidade de Catalão (GO) apresenta, de forma geral, maior número de risco associado aos riscos tecnológicos ou infraestruturas ineficientes, sendo: duas áreas de risco à exposição a campos eletromagnéticos (CEM) pela linhas de transmissão aérea de energia elétrica (LT), uma área pela subestação de distribuição de energia, tal como, dezenoves pontos pelas antenas transmissoras do Sistema de Telefonia Celular – Estações Radiobases (ERB), treze pontos por risco de rompimento de barragem, vinte seis pontos de risco por atividade de postos de combustíveis, bem como, trecho de risco por transporte ferroviário e rodoviário. Já os riscos naturais apresentam duas áreas de risco geológicos exógenos e nove pontos por riscos hidrológicos e nove zonas de matas por risco de queimadas. Concluiu-se que a sociedade catalana está exposta aos efeitos adversos discutidos na teoria da modernização reflexiva. Também se destaca a necessidade da elaboração do Plano Municipal de Redução de Risco (PMRR).

Abstract:
During a long period of time, mankind as we know it, has progressed in remarkable ways. We leap from one era to another, whilst becoming smarter and more capable. Although one could argue for the superiority of man, we have now reached a time where our skilfulness is beginning to backfire. As the desire for production and consumption is growing, the environmental impacts increase. Climate change has in many ways become the product of modernity. However, these relatively new circumstances are met with more and more awareness. One example is how Swedish grocery stores, in this case COOP, have expanded their range of vegetarian foods. They claim to take responsibility for the planet and for a greener future. In the last two years, they have released two rather noteworthy commercials, with the aim of reducing meat-eating. By applying a narrative and semiotic analysis, and by using Becks theories on reflexive modernization as framework, this essay has studied these commercials in order to understand how they communicate their plant based alternatives in relation to a changing society. The results showed that both commercials portray a growing concern for the planet and the prevailing change of its climate. To prevent these conditions from accelerating, they suggest less meat on the plate. Likewise, semiotic tools, like falling trees or flooding cities, are used to enhance the significance of the narrative. In conclusion, both commercials show to be in line with Becks observations of the modernized world – an acknowledgement of its detrimental character. Additively, they function as a means of addressing the issues of modernity and meat-eating in particular.

Abstract:

Offentligt rum och vardagens politik handlar om hur 1990- talets sociala förändring, med en rörelse från ett samhälle integrerat av arbetsetiken mot ett samhälle organiserat utifrån konsumtionsestetiken, förändrar demokratins villkor i och för det offentliga rummet. Det mer preciserade syftet är att undersöka vilka konsekvenser den sociala förändringen får för utövandet av vardagens politik i det offentliga rummet. Den övergripande frågeställningen är vad ett fritt ord innebär, vad är det fritt från och för vem är det fritt?

Centrala begrepp i studien är: Medborgaren, dvs. individens kollektiva identitet som politisk varelse. Decentraliserat politiskt begrepp, där utförandet av politik inte är förbehållet den parlamentariska sfären, utan något som sker i vår vardag, vardagens politik. Konsumtionsestetik, där identitetsbildande och rörlighet i det sociala rummet sker efter en individuell och upplevelsebaserad logik.

Det empiriska materialet består av tidningsartiklar från det offentliga samtalet om medborgarlön och är analyserade utifrån ett diskursanalytiskt perspektiv.

Abstract:
Diploma thesis "The Concept of Tradition in the Context of the Theory of Reflexive Modernization" deals with the phenomenon of the tradition and its influence on the construction of the social order and the construction of individual biographies in the modern era. The thesis rests on the theory of reflexive modernization which is well- known in sociological theory thanks to Ulrich Beck and Anthony Giddens. The present reinterpretations of their papers quite often lead to the incorrect explanation of the current reality. Then, the reality is claimed to be detraditionalized. Using the concept of relativization I reject considering the actual state as the state without tradition. The aim of the concept of relativization, which is supported by the principle of sociological imagination, is to dispute this radical statement. The postulate of relativization is demonstrated on the example of the traditional social forms, such as nuclear family. In a wider perspective the aim of the thesis is to declare the continuing tendencies in social sciences to emphasize only the selected aspects of social reality.

Abstract:
As alterações climáticas como problema, afeta e irá afetar toda a humanidade. Apesar de concorrerem em termos de ameaça à sociedade atual, numa escala global, com outros problemas, como as guerras, o terrorismo e as crises económicas, elas são pelas suas múltiplas dimensões e escala de impactos, um dos maiores desafios colocados aos homens e ao seu desenvolvimento, tanto a curto como a longo prazo. Uma dessas dimensões diz respeito à ação individual, mais concretamente às nossas atitudes como consumidores, que pela influência da globalização, acarretarão consequências. Como é sabido, um indivíduo só, não faz a sociedade, mas vários indivíduos e as ações desses indivíduos são o que move e produz a sociedade, daí a importância da análise a uma escala individual no consumo de eletricidade. Considerando que a produção de eletricidade, consiste numa das principais fontes de emissão de gases com efeito de estufa para a atmosfera, causadores do aquecimento global e que têm como consequência as alterações climáticas. O objetivo deste estudo, que se insere no âmbito de uma dissertação de mestrado em Ecologia Humana, é o de perceber se na população estudantil da Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, o conhecimento e perceção acerca das alterações climáticas, influenciam os seus hábitos de consumo de eletricidade, enquadrando a ação e as representações, que os estudantes fazem sobre as alterações climáticas, nas perspetivas teóricas da modernização reflexiva e da ação prática.
Climate changes as a problem affect the present and the future of all mankind. Despite competing in terms of threat to modern society on a global scale with other problems such as wars, terrorism and economic crises, they are by their multiple dimensions and scale of impacts, one of the biggest challenges to human beings and their development in the short and long-term. One of these dimensions concerns individual action, specifically our attitudes as consumers that will generate consequences under the influence of globalization. It is known that a unique individual does not make a society, but several individuals and their actions move and produce the society, hence the importance of the analysis of the individual scale in electricity consumption. Considering that electricity production is one of the main sources of greenhouse gas emission into the atmosphere, which is causing global warming and thereby leading to climate changes. And that, this study falls within the scope of a dissertation master in Human Ecology, it´s aim is to understand if, amongst the students of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, their knowledge and perception about climate changes influence their electricity consumption habits, by framing their practice and representations on climate changes, under the theoretical perspectives of reflexive modernization and practical action.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the place of genre in modern Chinese fiction through a reading of Xiang Kairan’s martial arts novelRighteous Heroes of Modern Times, considered one of the foundational works of modern martial arts fiction. The novel’s narrative centers on the question of the transmission of China’s martial arts. In a self-reflexive turn, it establishes connections between the transmission of the martial arts and of narrative—both the transitivity of the narrative act and the transmission of particular bodies of narrative material. The tale involves a modernization of the mode of transmission, thus probing the tension between continuity and change inherent in the logic of transmission—of martial arts traditions as well as of the generic structures of martial arts fiction. This allows for a reflection on the laws of genre itself, since a genre work succeeds in part by varying or violating the material that it inherits.

Abstract:
In chapter 2 different voices and theories are in dialogue. First, by exploring and critiquing risk sociology through Beck’s notion of “reflexive modernization,” Strydom’s extension of Beck’s thesis, Giddens’s observation of the contradictions between experts, Beck and Beck-Gernsheim’s “normal chaos of love,” and Giddens’s understanding of the transformation of intimacy within risk modernity, the chapter draws attention to the critical assumptions underlying this “new risk” position and how it can be strengthened and extended within media/cultural studies. Second, the chapter explores film reviewing and current film theory through scholar Linda Williams’s work on “cinema and the sex act,” emphasizing bodily performance and aesthetic form, and via literary scholar Raymond Williams’s understanding of naturalism, emotional realism, and the secularization of intimacy, especially in his notion of “structures of feeling.” The arrival of the underclass stranger in the real sex film Romance is considered in this context.
