Ulrich Beck is one of the authors who analyze this process in the context of the changing from the first to the second modernity. The second modernity, which is marked by risks, experiences a reflexive modernization, in which significant changes took place in the work sphere, in the family, in politics and in the placing and role of individuals. Therefore, what occurs is the reflexivity of modernity upon itself. In this process, the individuals became the referential unit of society. Individualization is ambivalent, in the sense that while it sets the individuals free from traditional standards and references, it also entails new types of freedom, characterized by impending risks. Beck proposes some criteria for the analysis of society, which will be examined in this article.
