World Risk Society

World Risk Society, a concept developed by sociologist Ulrich Beck, describes a modern society increasingly shaped by global risks created by human activity, such as climate change, technological hazards, and economic crises. These risks transcend national borders, making them difficult to predict and manage locally. Society must adapt to these complex, interconnected dangers, often involving new challenges to political, social, and environmental stability. It emphasizes the shift from traditional threats to uncertain, man-made risks that require collective awareness, innovative solutions, and international cooperation to mitigate their impacts on individuals and communities worldwide.
