Individualisation at Work

Individualisation has become an ambiguous, but defining feature of late modern societies and while it is in part characterised by an increase in individual autonomy and a sense of liberation, individuals are equally required to negotiate a fragmented, pluralised and ambiguous social order by themselves. This book sheds light on the processes and nature of contemporary individualisation, specifically exploring the manner in which it unfolds under conditions of contemporary network capitalism.

Die globale Finanzklasse

Ein neuer Modus sozialer Grenzziehung wird sichtbar, der paradox erscheint: Exklusivität durch Einschluss, Abschottung durch Öffnung.
