"Scott Lash's section in this book is an excellent interpretation of the work of three of the key thinkers on agency and structure in late modernity--Giddens, Beck and Bourdieu. Lash, without being too reductionist, examines the role of reflexivity in their work, contrasts the work on 'structuration' by Giddens and Bourdieu, and posits his own notion of 'aesthetic reflexivity,' rooted in thinkers like Benjamin and Adorno."
