About kelvinsilva
In this episode of the podcast, Kelvin delves into the topic of Late Modernity, a concept developed by Anthony Giddens in 1991. The discussion revolves around how institutions like capitalism and industrialism become more radicalized during this advanced stage of modernity, largely due to an intensifying global context. The key characteristics of Late Modernity, including globalization, disembedding, social reflexivity, and a quick pace of changes, are examined in detail. While understanding the many advancements brought about by this phenomena, Kelvin also focuses on its significant social and cultural impacts, such as increasing inequalities, social exclusion, and erosion of local cultures. Concluding on the note of reflecting on these challenges and finding ways to mitigate their negative effects, especially on marginalized communities, the episode is a deep dive into the paradoxes of advanced modernity.
