The Sociology Of Anthony Giddens May 2026

Giddens characterizes our current era as "late modernity" or a "juggernaut" that is constantly rushing out of control.

Bloggers often focus on Giddens' attempt to bridge the gap between "structure" (large social forces) and "agency" (individual choice).

The Sociological Review explores how Giddens became a "superstar professor" and the ambivalent relationship many sociologists have with his later, more political work.

In the past, people followed tradition. Today, we are constantly reflecting on and adjusting our behavior based on new information. Even our self-identity is a "reflexive project" we work on daily.
