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.

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...  

一共就读过吉登斯两本书，一本《现代性的后果》，一本这个《现代性与自我认同》，每次都不是很愉悦的阅读体验，前者好像还好，不过现在也悲催地忘记书里在讲什么了，无比郁闷当时没有做笔记。这本呢，分析周密，整体逻辑架构清晰，吉登斯也实在底蕴深厚地信手拈来各家论...

要不是先读了Sewell，一辈子都不会明白这货到底要说啥。
