反身現代化（reflexive modernization）或反身現代性（reflexive modernity）
的提出，主要嘗試重估社會學作為有關「當前」的科學及後現代主義的替代方案。
這個概念雖以「後工業社會」（post-industrial society）和「後物質社會」
（postmaterial society）等觀念為基礎，但強調現代化過程本身如何成為現代性
的對象。相關理論聚焦於現代性理念之實現所造成的各種變遷（包括專業主義、
福利國家、市場體制、公民權等），而這些「現代性的成就」標誌了向「第二現
代性」（second modernity）的轉變。之所以稱為反身現代性，是因與於現代性
的較早版本（簡單或第一現代性〔simple or first modernity〕）相對立，正如簡
單或第一現代性與封建傳統主義對立。第一現代性的各種制度（如國家、家庭、
市場）因經濟與文化的全球化而經歷劇烈的變化，隨著個體化（individualization）
的興起，先前社會凝聚（solidarity）的來源愈來愈失去力量。本課程主要聚焦
於 Anthony Giddens、Ulrich Beck 及 Scott Lash 這三個社會理論家的理論，介

was proposed as an attempt to re-evaluate sociology as a science of the "present" and as an alternative to postmodernism.
Although this concept is divided into "post-industrial society" and "post-material society"

Welfare state, market system, citizenship, etc.), and these "achievements of modernity" mark the transition to the "second modernity"
