Informational relations in Giddens' reflexive society

Within the research area line 'Information and Society', one can point out arguments developed by the contemporary author Anthony Giddens. The debate is enlightened on by examples of social action and subjectivity, currently played actors and communities in their day-to-day interaction. Men-machine relations receive special attention. Giddens explains also other types of actions nowadays, based on fundamentalism. He explains that these actions are strong reactions of some religions that felt insecure due to the break of traditions and the news brought by the cosmopolitan world.
