In this new book, Ulrich Beck and the journalist Johannes Willms engage in a series of accessible conversations that reveal and explore the key elements in Beck's thought. * Ulrich Beck, one of the most important and influential contemporary social thinkers, reveals and expands his work in a series of conversations with journalist Johannes Willms. * These conversations shed new light onto the major themes in Beck's work and provide an insight into some of the commitments and beliefs that they rest upon. * Includes new thinking on the risk society and on globalisation, themes that have put him at the forefront of contemporary debates. * Witten in a clear and lucid way and thus ideal for anyone seeking to come to grips with Beck's work.
